Jane and John, two attractive people, meet at a friend’s wedding. They are total strangers, who almost manage to get it on in a quiet cloakroom. The chemistry between them is obvious, but they both have terrible records with members of the opposite sex, and they decide to proceed with caution.

Living in different cities, they begin an exchange of letters honestly detailing their experiences. After six months, they will meet – if they are still interested. The reader will not know – until the very last page – how this unusual love story will turn out.

This is a fresh approach to the battle of the sexes by two accomplished writers at the top of their form. Offbeat, intelligent, angry, amusing and direct.
