Love’s a Losing Game?

Alfie’s convinced Maya is The One, but his dreams shatter when she unveils her older boyfriend. Heartbroken, he finds solace with Maya’s introverted best friend, Gwen, and sparks begin to fly. But Gwen’s keeping secrets, leaving Alfie utterly lost.

Navigating the tangled web of his friendship group, Alfie’s quest for love takes a complicated turn, culminating in a major blunder. Can he win over the girl of his dreams, or is he destined for a losing streak in the game of love?

A charmingly humorous romance about the pitfalls and unexpected turns on the road to finding love.
