    About this ebook

    Tess is down on her luck - her girlfriend has left her, she has lost her job and without an income she will soon be homeless.

    On the way to a job interview, torrential rain forces her to seek cover. She heads to the nearest place available - a Tarot and tea shop, totally unaware that what is revealed in the cards for her future is just the beginning.

    Love on the cards is a short story with a message for us all - to never lose hope despite the dire circumstances you may find yourself in.
