Summary

2021 Audie Award Winner for Best Romance Audiobook

An Amazon Charts and Washington Post best seller

From New York Times best-selling authors Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward comes an unexpected love story that started with a boy and girl and heats up when the man and woman reconnect.

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.

Critic reviews

"Jacob Morgan and Andi Arndt share the narration of this highly charged romance.... Morgan and Arndt both emote as their characters exchange "dirty letters" and sexual taunts that grow steamier and more erotic, including descriptions of BDSM sex play." --AudioFile Magazine

"An anxious, agoraphobic heroine takes center stage in this optimistic contemporary from Keeland and Ward...Griffin and Luca’s letters are endearing and believably intimate.... Readers motivated to see this unlikely heroine succeed will forgive the more fantastical indulgences of this light, escapist romance." --Publishers Weekly

A great read and audiobook

I loved reading this book and listening to the audiobook. Both gripping me from beginning to end. A true romance. I was sorry to reach the end.

Oh my goodness!!!

I read works from these writers from another app and I'm so so INCREDIBLY glad that I moved to audible to continue exploring the work /stories (I'm not saying that apps... Like.... Erm.... Moments... Are bad.... but I've found that you get a cropped version on there of several books I've reread/experienced again on here).

I laughed my way through the story even though there's a lot of difficult times for the characters.... I loved it... It also had a few canny saucy moments.... I REALLY REALLY don't want to spoil it but if you're a "cryer" like me, you can guarantee that you will be sobbing towards the end..... So prepare yourself for it!!


Ooooooooooooo.... What to read now?! 🤷🏻‍♀️🤯😹❤️

Flight Or Fight?

Wow!
This story really resonates with me. Although not the same condition, mine mimics the same path as the main character Luca. I too get anxious about going out; I panic when surrounded by large groups of people and one by one, as my condition worsens, my world gets smaller, as friends become fewer and fewer because they dont have the time to get to understand my situation.
So there comes a point where you either accept life as it is, or you fight to change it for the better - Flight or Fight!
Another really well plotted story by Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward. Empathetic to the end. A love story included too. Brilliantly narrated. I didn’t want the story to end. I thought this story was well written and would have no problems in recommending it to other readers/listeners. Go on dip your toe in.

Brilliant!!!

There's nothing about this book I do not love. Beautiful story, well written, great plot, and both narrators brought out its brilliance. A lot of insightful information about birds, phobias and songs by Abba that made it quite colourful. I loved the characters - Griffin/Cole and Luca... even Doc. I was rooting for Griffin and Luca all the way. Love is such a powerful force. When things are meant to be, they're meant to be!

A warm and sweet feel good story of courage, hope and love. I would highly recommend.

in shock. love love love this book!

I spent my childhood and teen years writing to a beautiful soul in secret. he sent letters to my friend to ensure I got them. (narc mother) he helped me survive a painful childhood and I loved him very much. he decorated the envelopes with funny cartoons. he suddenly passed away 5 years ago and this book.. this book! portrays those beautiful letters and connection with him. I spent a beautiful day in Glasgow touring and having drinks and lots of laughter before he passed and I'm so glad I had that day.
I love this book as it portays a part of my life that saved my life so thank you x
