This is actually the classic tale of boy meets girl: Female goes home with someone else.

Meet Eve. She’s a dreamer, a feeler, a careening well of sensitivities who can’t quite maintain her feet on the ground, or steer clear of trouble. She’s a laugher, a crier, a quirky and quick-witted bleeding-heart-worrier.

Meet Ben. He’s an engineer, an expert at leveling floors who likes order, structure, and right lines. He doesn’t opine, he doesn’t ruminate, he doesn’t simmer until he boils over.

So about This Love Story Can Self-Destruct normally, when the two first cross paths, sparks don’t exactly fly. But they meet once again. And again. And, finally, they find themselves with a deep however fragile connection that may change the span of their relationship possibly forever.

Follow Eve and Ben because they navigate their twenties on the winding journey through first jobs, first times, and initial breakups; through first reunions, first betrayals and, maybe, first love. That is When Harry Met Sally reimagined; a alluring tale informed from two unapologetically first points of view. With an acerbic edge and heartwarming laughter, debut novelist Leslie Cohen requires us on the tour of what life looks like when it generally does not go according to strategy, and explores the complexity, chaos, and humor to find a relationship built to last.
