𝓞𝓷𝓮 𝓵𝓮𝓽𝓽𝓮𝓻 𝓬𝓸𝓾𝓵𝓭 𝓬𝓱𝓪𝓷𝓰𝓮 𝓮𝓿𝓮𝓻𝔂𝓽𝓱𝓲𝓷𝓰. Rose Jacobs has been unlucky in love and in life. Wracked with grief and loneliness after a tragic accident, Rose has spent the last three years of her life attempting to regain some form of normalcy. Her normalcy? Running a used bookstore owned by her parents, full of classic literature. Romance? What's that? The only romance in her life at the moment includes rereading the fictional romance filled between the pages of her favorite books in the store. Oh, and her beloved golden retriever, Ginger. With the way her life has turned out, she couldn't have predicted the turn of events that would unfold after a box of classic books is brought into her store by a stranger looking to make a quick buck. Finding hidden love letters throughout each book brought in, Rose delves into the world and love life of Jo Rutherford--the books' original owner, who happened to write love letters to her future husband in the 1940s. Feeling lonely, but inspired by the letters, Rose begins her journey of creating her own letters to someone she doesn't believe exists. Nothing could prepare her for the excitement her boring love life was about to get when River Ellison, a handsome, arrogant and persistent man comes into her bookstore only mere hours after writing her first letter. In a journey of self-discovery and growth, Rose maneuvers through the hardships of romance and love while still attempting to piece herself back together after her life was turned upside down three years ago.
