Hmm I think it's interesting and different. Not many romance stories start off with the main character being in a place like that. I liked it. :)

It looks like you have a great start here. The phone bit was especially nice, I thought it was a creative twist on the girl-meets-boy plot.
Your writing seems jumbled at the moment, and the pacing seems a little rushed. I think with a little editing you'd catch some grammar mistakes, but they didn't distract from the story.
Keep it going! I love the name Verona, btw.
