The book everyone's talking about...
Based on Zoë Folbigg's true story comes an unforgettable romance about how a little note can change everything...
​
One very ordinary day, Maya Flowers sees a new commuter board her train to London, and suddenly the day isn't ordinary at all. Maya knows immediately and irrevocably, that he is The One.
​
But the beautiful man on the train always has his head in a book and never seems to notice Maya sitting just down the carriage from him every day. Eventually, though, inspired by a very wise friend, Maya plucks up the courage to give the stranger a note asking him out for a drink. After all, what's the worst that can happen?
​
And so begins a story of sliding doors, missed opportunities and finding happiness where you least expect it.
​
The Note is an uplifting, life-affirming reminder that taking a chance can change everything...
