Sneak Peek from UNEXPECTED DELIVERY

Jasmine Davies likes neat lines—tidy shelves, colour-coded lists, and the comfort of knowing exactly what’s arriving at her door.

Adrian Finch likes control too—but his comes from survival. Long shifts, too much responsibility, and a flat that’s meant to be his quiet reset button.

They live opposite each other in a perfectly ordinary London block: Flat 3B and Flat 3A. Their paths should’ve stayed politely parallel—a nod in the corridor, a muttered hello by the post boxes.

Then a parcel goes to the wrong door.

And the contents are… unforgettable.

What starts as an awkward, hilarious mix-up turns into late-night knocks, accidental honesty, and the kind of connection that builds one small decision at a time—until Jasmine and Adrian realise the “wrong delivery” might be the best thing that ever happened to them.

Because sometimes love doesn’t arrive with grand gestures.
Sometimes it shows up in ridiculous packaging… and changes everything.

About UNEXPECTED DELIVERY

Jasmine Davies lives for order.

She likes her shelves aligned, her lists colour-coded, and her life structured enough to feel safe. Jasmine doesn’t mind being single—she minds unpredictability. She minds mess. She minds people who treat “it’ll be fine” like a plan.

So she moves into a quiet London apartment block where nothing dramatic is supposed to happen.

Across the hall is Adrian Finch.

Adrian is quiet in the way exhausted people become quiet—because they’ve spent all day carrying responsibility and have nothing left for conversation. He works long shifts. He keeps his life contained. And his flat is meant to be his reset button: close the door, shut out the world, breathe.

Jasmine and Adrian are polite neighbors.

A nod in the corridor.
A muttered hello by the post boxes.
Nothing more.

Until the parcel arrives at the wrong door.

Jasmine sees it first. Wrong name. Wrong flat. She tells herself she’ll do the normal thing—walk it across the hall, hand it over, and move on.

Then the contents make that impossible.

It’s awkward. It’s hilarious. It’s unmistakably not meant for Jasmine’s tidy, controlled life. And worse—Jasmine panics, because now she knows something about Adrian Finch she was never supposed to know.

She knocks on his door anyway.

Adrian opens it, looks at the box, then looks at Jasmine, and the silence between them becomes the most mortifying thing in London.

Jasmine tries to be professional.

Adrian tries to be calm.

Neither succeeds.

The mix-up should end there. A quick apology. A nervous laugh. A promise to never speak of this again.

Except it doesn’t.

Because the parcel becomes the beginning of a pattern: small collisions that keep happening whether they want them to or not. Another package. Another hallway moment. Another accidental conversation that lingers longer than it should.

Then comes the building group chat.

Someone posts about delivery theft. Someone complains about the recycling bins. Someone starts a mini investigation. Suddenly the entire building is involved—nosy, bored, and fully convinced something is happening between Flat 3A and Flat 3B.

Jasmine hates it.

Adrian pretends he doesn’t notice.

But the chaos forces them closer.

Late-night knocks turn into real conversation. Shared frustration turns into banter. Banter turns into comfort. Jasmine learns Adrian isn’t cold—he’s worn down. He carries more than he says, and he’s been surviving so long he forgot what it feels like to be cared about.

Adrian learns Jasmine isn’t controlling because she’s uptight—she’s controlling because life has taught her that when things fall apart, you’re the only one who puts them back together.

They start showing up for each other in small, ordinary ways:

A saved parcel.
A text message warning about the group chat drama.
A shared cup of tea in the corridor that turns into an hour on the floor by the door.

And slowly, without grand gestures, the connection becomes real.

Because sometimes love doesn’t arrive like a movie moment.

Sometimes it comes in ridiculous packaging.

Sometimes it starts with embarrassment.

And sometimes the “wrong delivery” is exactly what you needed—because it brings the right person to your door.
