Long-distance relationships are often met with rolling of the eyes and the sympathetic "Hope it works out!" response. Yet after seeing her older brother Connor make it work with his long-time girlfriend, Aria Hall thought that she too could make it. Brenden Sarth didn't understand what Aria did. He didn't know how to make it work. And he screwed it up. For both of them. Now, he'll do everything he can to win Aria back, but he might not be enough. And when you live 3,000 miles apart, it's hard to force someone to talk to you. Written completely in text messages, social media posts, and letters between two ex-lovers, "Love, Aria" takes the dynamic of a long-distance relationship from "Dear Sydney" and brings it to a new level of depth and intrigue. Using screenshots and emotional letters, this story, set two years after the end of "Dear Sydney", spins a tale of heartbreak, denial, and ultimately, love. **Although "Love, Aria" is a spin-off from my multimedia novel "Dear Sydney", it can easily be read as a stand-alone book, so don't let the fact that a book came before it deter you from reading!** First chapter uploaded on September 4th, 2016 Highest Rank: #100 in Romance on 4/15/17

She left him when the summer ended and hasn't seen him since, his number blocked, his face forgotten.
