A Contemporary Romance Novel
New York Times Bestselling Authors Vi Keeland & Penelope Ward
BLURB
I’d never forgotten him—a man I’d yet to meet.
Griffin Quinn was my childhood pen pal, the British boy who couldn’t have been more different from me. Over the years, through hundreds of letters, we became best friends, sharing our deepest, darkest secrets and forming a connection I never thought could break.
Until one day it did.
Then, out of the blue, a new letter arrived. A scathing one—one with eight years of pent-up anger. I had no choice but to finally come clean as to why I stopped writing.
Griffin forgave me, and somehow we were able to rekindle our childhood connection. Only now we were adults, and that connection had grown to a spark. Our letters quickly went from fun to flirty to downright dirty, revealing our wildest fantasies. So it only made sense that we would take our relationship to the next level and see each other in person.
Only Griff didn’t want to meet. He asked that I trust him and said it was for the best. But I wanted more—more Griff, in the flesh—so I took a big chance and went looking for him. People have done crazier things for love.
But what I found could change everything.

Review by Lisa Kane
Luca lives almost as a recluse, by her own choice. Well, maybe if she could choose she would not want to feel the fear and panic she does, but it is what it is. Her therapist/best friend, Dr. Maxwell helps her to cope. But he goes way beyond the role of a therapist, he accompanies her to all the exercises he encourages her to do. To stretch beyond the walls of her house.
That's why she is in New York. She needed to clean out her father's things and of course Doc is here with her. When she's rummaging around she finds a letter addressed to her from her pen pal, Griffin. They spent years writing to each other-he lived in England and she lived in the States. The letter has a California address. Griffin has lots of pent up anger that's he's directing at Luca. She stopped writing him with no warning or explanation. But she had a good reason, only Griffin never knew it.
Luca decides it's time to contact him again. But will he respond? Of course he will, he may think he moved on, but next to his mom, Luca was the most important person in his life. She's always been there, in the back of his mind.
It's almost as if no time has passed without them in each other's lives. The easy banter, the flirty little exchanges that get dirty and more personal with each letter. Yes, they still use snail mail. No texts, no emails. Letters. Paper. Postage.
Luca would like to meet face to face. But each time she brings up the subject, Griffin shoots it down. Why? Well, maybe because he's hiding a huge secret. One that will more than likely ruin any chance they have of being together as more than pen pals.
There's no cheating, and some mild angst. Of course there's an animal-this time a pig and yes, I want one too. Both characters are tortured in their own way, Luca's problems are more transparent, but Griffin wrestles with his own demons. I love second chance at love stories and even though technically they were never lovers the first time around, I still think of this as their second shot at getting it right.
