I have loved the other books by Simsion. This one also has quirky characters (which I love) but they didn't make me smile or chuckle like those in the previous books. Still I liked the book a lot. Adam Sharp's vocation is in IT. His passion is the piano. While on a job in Australia he ends up playing the piano in a bar. One night a beautiful woman walks in. She is Angelina Brown, an actress in a tv series, who is also a great singer. They flirt that first evening using songs. And that is the beginning of a great love and passion which only lasted a few months. When Adam's assignment is over he just can't take a chance on love and he goes back to England.
Twenty two years later Adam is almost fifty. He has had a long, long relationship with his partner, Claire, he enjoys quiz nights with friends in a pub, he does consulting work but has never forgotten Angelina.
And one day he receives an email from her. It simply says "Hi". And that is the beginning of a second chance to reconnect with the love of his life.
Because of my age the part of the book that I loved the most was the references to music (from my era!). At the back of the book is a list of the songs that he references in the book plus information on how you can get the
Spotify playlist of all the songs!
