About Piso para dos / The Flatshare

Tiffy y Leon comparten piso.

Tiffy y Leon comparten cama.

Tiffy y Leon no se conocen.

Tiffy Moore necesita un piso barato, y con urgencia. Leon Twomey trabaja de noche y anda escaso de dinero. Sus amigos piensan que están locos pero es la solución ideal: Leon usa la cama mientras Tiffy está en la oficina durante el día y ella dispone del apartamento el resto del tiempo. Y su modo de comunicarse mediante notas es divertido y parece funcionar de maravilla para resolver las vitales cuestiones de quién se ha acabado la mantequilla y si la tapa del váter debería estar subida o bajada.

Claro que si a eso se añaden exnovios obsesivos, clientes exigentes, hermanos encarcelados por error y, lo más importante, el hecho de que aún no se conocen, Tiffy y Leon están a punto de descubrir que lograr la convivencia perfecta no es fácil. Y que convertirse en amigos puede ser solo el principio…

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

What if your roommate is your soul mate? A joyful, quirky romantic comedy, Beth O’Leary’s The Flatshare is a feel-good novel about finding love in the most unexpected of ways.

Tiffy and Leon share an apartment. Tiffy and Leon have never met.

After a bad breakup, Tiffy Moore needs a place to live. Fast. And cheap. But the apartments in her budget have her wondering if astonishingly colored mold on the walls counts as art.
Desperation makes her open minded, so she answers an ad for a flatshare. Leon, a night shift worker, will take the apartment during the day, and Tiffy can have it nights and weekends. He’ll only ever be there when she’s at the office. In fact, they’ll never even have to meet.

Tiffy and Leon start writing each other notes – first about what day is garbage day, and politely establishing what leftovers are up for grabs, and the evergreen question of whether the toilet seat should stay up or down. Even though they are opposites, they soon become friends. And then maybe more.

But falling in love with your roommate is probably a terrible idea… especially if you’ve never met.
