      Het is een moderne love story. Josie Lloyd en Emlyn Rees schreven samen een bruisend boy-meets-girl-verhaal. Lloyd schreef de hoofdstukken vanuit het perspectief van het meisje. Rees die vanuit de jongen. Pikant detail is dat de auteurs zelf een beginnende relatie hadden die groeide naarmate het boek vorderde, hoofdstuk na hoofdstuk, date na date. Hun affaire leidde tot een huwelijk. Het boek gaat over Jack en Amy. Jack is 27. Hij vindt het heerlijk om single te zijn. Eerdere verliefdheden liepen allemaal op niets uit. Hij houdt lekker hardnekkig vast aan het ideaalbeeld dat hij van kinds af aan van meisjes heeft. Amy is 25, single en wanhopig. Ze is al in geen eeuwen meer een echt leuke man tegengekomen. Dan, op een feestje in hartje Londen, lopen Jack en Amy elkaar tegen het lijf. Hun cynische harten vullen zich met hoop. Het onvermijdelijke aantrekken en afstoten begint. Heb mij lief beschrijft hoe Jack en Amy ieder op hun eigen wijze reageren op steeds dezelfde gebeurtenissen. Het resultaat is een hippe, sexy, licht ironiserende liefdesgeschiedenis die zo gruwelijk herkenbaar is dat je tenen er van krullen.
