Love Virtually

Love Virtually
It begins by chance: Leo receives emails in error from an unknown woman called Emmi. Being polite he replies, and Emmi writes back. A few brief exchanges are all it takes to spark a mutual interest in each other, and soon Emmi and Leo are sharing their innermost secrets and longings. The erotic tension simmers, and it seems only a matter of time before they will meet in person. But they keep putting off the moment - the prospect both excites and unsettles them. And after all, Emmi is happily married. Will their feelings for each other survive the test of a real-life encounter?

The Guardian
Ian Sansom
"The end is as unexpected as it is inevitable. The book is translated from the German, but the whole thing is tout à fait."

"It’s the kind of book you can read while doing several other things at the same time, but sometimes that’s just what you need."

"...a modern romance that feels both fresh and traditional, and its lack of easy answers makes it a curiosity worth exploring. "
