Whoever said absence makes the heart grow fonder never had to deal with COVID. And with so many travel restrictions all over, many couples have been forced into long-distance relationships<\/strong>. So, in order to make that distance just a little bit smaller, our new book for couples, \u201cDaniel, 10 Reasons I Lo<\/a>ve You\u201d<\/a><\/strong> has been helping a few stranded lovers reunite, even across oceans. Here are a couple of their stories. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alessandra and Simone<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Italy was one of the hardest-hit countries when the pandemic began, with many Italians still not able to return home. Such is the case of Alessandra and Simone<\/strong>. And while it has been difficult, Alessandra decided to create one of our Love You Book<\/em> books for Simone, and judging by the picture, you can tell it\u2019s una vera storia d\u2019 amore<\/strong>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Teresa and Marcus<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Teresa just so happens to be stuck in Taiwan, and Marcus just so happens to be stuck in Vancouver. But that didn\u2019t stop Teresa from surprising Marcus with THE incredibly cute early Valentine\u2019s Day gift<\/strong>! Just look at how happy he is! This is cuteness overload, y\u2019all!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deagan and Joseph<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Joseph, aka Coynie, is in China for work, while his wife, Deagen, and their kids, Harlyn & Hale, are in British Columbia. And unfortunately, due to Chinese customs rules, they weren\u2019t able to ship him the book. So, they did the next best thing and read it to him together over FaceTime<\/strong>! And by the smile on his face, we\u2019d say that HE LOVED IT!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We received another heartfelt message from Kira over Facebook the other day:
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHey! I just wanted to share my experience and how HAPPY I am with the book. My fianc\u00e9 is from the US and I\u2019m from Canada. Covid has had us struggling to see each other with the restrictions. I came across your page and thought what an awesome idea, I could send this right to his doorstep! Thank you soooo much for having such a wonderful business and allowing our long-distance relationship to flourish and stay fun!\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
