Summary
A number one international and Amazon Charts best-selling novel
"There are not enough words to do this story justice. It is mind-blowing, intense, emotional, steamy, dark and so twisty. A masterpiece...." (When Vane Reads)
The first letter arrived the day my husband was buried. It was postmarked from the state penitentiary, and contained a single sentence:
I’ll wait forever if I have to.
It was signed by Dante, a man I didn’t know.
Out of simple curiosity, I wrote back to ask him what exactly he was waiting for. His reply?
You.
I told the mystery man he had the wrong girl. He said he didn’t. I said we’d never met, but he said I was wrong.
We went back and forth, exchanging letters every week that grew increasingly more intimate. Then one day, the letters stopped. When I found out why, it was already too late.
Dante was at my doorstep.
And nothing on earth could have prepared me for what happened next.

not for me
Liked the author’s writing, but didn’t enjoy this story. Story felt jumbled and the scenes with heat didn’t have depth - characters didn’t have enough of a relationship. Not much of a romance book to me. Have loved other books by the author.
Listened to the audiobook:
Narrators did a great job, but narration was so slow - sped up a lot.

I cried tears at the end
I don't want to give anything away. The story line has your mind thinking one thing while it's completely different. Loved the characters and everything about it, well worth listening too.

OMG 😍😍😍😍
No words… however I will iterate… the old cliche of “Don’t Judge A Book By It’s Cover” comes to mind. I thought going into this story I kinda have an idea of the storyline … I was so wrong. And I was soooo not ready!!!!
You know; how everyone and their mothers are so quick to ramble about and thus give away critical “spoilers” that annoys the next reader? With this story there is no words the mind can conjure… to alleviate, or iterate! All one can do is just shake one’s head in wonder… how one never saw this story or plot coming. It felt like I fell down Alice’s rabbit hole and discovered pure sensational Magic. This story left me giggling like the Mad Hatter himself, then creeped me out like crazy. Like a oncoming tsunami, i never saw or felt the tremble of the Earthquake. I was swept away… all that remains (after all is Read & Done) is me drinking my cup tea, still reeling & still thinking “How I never saw this coming”
I would be the first to rage on about how much I loved a story… in this case… it’s beyond my words. Not many books or stories has left me in a trance…
This book was definitely one of them. It’s five star everything. And I mean everything as in EVERYTHING ( screeching) lol
Don’t just take my word for it. Read it!!!
Enjoy 😊

So. Damn. Good.
I don’t normally write reviews, but I bloody loved this book. Troy Duran has to have one of the hottest voices of all time and the female narrator also rocked. I listened to the whole book in one day so - it doesn’t get much better than that.

Romantic Suspense-Sexy-Mysterious-Thrill Ride!
5 Stars! This is an amazing, complex novel about Kayla, who just lost her husband. She meets Aiden, a handyman she needs to help repair her home, and is also receiving mysterious letters from Dante, a man she's never met. This story feels feels more like an erotic thriller or a romantic suspense with paranormal elements, than just a basic romance. The plot is very twisty and if you enjoy wild, emotional rides, then this is it!
It is clever, well thought out, and the ending will make some people think that it IS a HEA and others will feel like it's NOT. It is emotionally vague, and non-traditional.
I very much enjoyed this book and devoured it in one day. I couldn't wait to hear the audio! It's absolutely amazing and worth every penny! Tara Langella and Troy Duran deliver stellar performances in this duet style narration. I listened after having read and it definitely hit different. I caught so many more little hints, clues and details that I missed this first time around.

WHAT A RIVETING & MEMORABLE MINDF’K
Words like wow.. mind blowing.. refreshingly different.. unique.. suspenseful.. mysterious.. climactic.. compelling.. beautiful.. sizzling.. hot.. tragic.. heartbreaking.. unconventional.. and superbly written can all be used to described this talented author’s latest book. JT is one of my absolute favorite authors who I eagerly just instantly ‘one click’ without needing to think too hard about it. And boy oh boy the duet-style narration for this unconventionally and supernaturally spun romance was spot on perfect.. choosing Tara and Troy to bring the turmoil, the intrigue, the heart and the heavy emotional feels to the story was a well-played masterplan.
Worth a credit? Yes, even though it made me sad, I still loved it.

5 stars isnt enough!!
I don't usually take the time to write an actual review. This book has earned that from me. I was skeptical and was like meh, its probably just a quick read about a prison inmate penpalship turned romance. It is not what I thought it was going to be at all! I am listening to it for the 3rd time in a week as I write this. Best part is this book is narrated by my favorite voice actors as well! Take the chance like I did. I found my favorite book I've ever read!

Loved the narrators but not the story
First, I want to say that the narrators did an amazing job. I love Troy Duran, who is always fantastic. I don't remember Tara from other books, but she was really amazing, and I plan to look for other books she narrated.
That said, I couldn't love the story. First, there should have been a paranormal label on this. I really don't care for them, and I felt a bit tricked by the advertising. I guessed the *big* surprise a little before halfway through and I didn't care for the ending of the story. I guess I felt like some component was missing, but I honestly couldn't explain what.
I think the description needs to be fixed, so readers really know what story they're buying. I would have passed on this one and wish I hadn't used my only credit for the month on it. I'm usually so careful about what books I pick because I can't afford to buy extra credits.

Holy Matchstick!! 🤯❤️
I went into this listen totally blind. I’m a massive fan of this author and I stayed away from all reviews/spoilers until the audiobook was released. I am SO glad that I did! I devoured this book in 2 days and I not ok. My emotions changed moment to moment and I had full body goosebumps more than once. The steam was a 5 star alarm 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 and the story… the love!! This one will be a listen hangover for awhile
