Love is blind. Matt says that’s a fairytale.

I guess we’ll find out who’s right.

What should have been a brief airport stopover turns into two weeks of quarantine in a bland hotel room with nothing but my own thoughts for company.

Until I meet a kind voice over the hotel phone.

Matt is funny, thoughtful, and surprisingly easy to talk to. Before long, our daily conversations become the highlight of my day. Then the highlight of my life.

The problem? We’ve never met.

I’ve fallen for his voice, his kindness, and the man he is beneath the surface. Matt insists that reality is rarely that simple.

He claims once we finally meet, everything will change.

I’m determined to prove him wrong.

In this emotional forced-proximity romance, two lonely strangers fall in love through late-night phone calls and shared vulnerability long before they ever see each other. Expect a wounded cinnamon roll hero, emotional intimacy, a messy first meeting, and a love story that asks whether being truly seen matters more than appearances.
