Dearluke Stories

emmy edwards has spent her whole life in the shadow of the rink - as a michigan student-athlete, a lacrosse standout, and the twin sister of defenseman ethan edwards, she's used to navigating a world full of hockey boys, chirping, and chaos. the one thing she isn't used to? feelings. especially not the feelings she's been secretly writing down in a collection of unsent letters addressed to her brother's best friend. luke hughes is supposed to be off-limits - the golden boy of yost, the quiet-hearted hockey star who always looks out for her, the one person she should never fall for. but when he accidentally discovers the letters she never meant for anyone to read, everything changes. and instead of walking away, he starts writing back. she doesn't know he's reading. he doesn't know how to stop. told entirely through letters both hidden and unsent, this is a slow, aching story of friendship, trust, late-night practices, unexpected confessions, and the terrifying possibility that the person you're falling for... might be falling too.

When we both fall asleep Underneath the same sky To the beat of our hearts at the same time So close but so far away.

"Dear Luke, Nothing and I say nothing is impossible if you give it a try!"

"if only we had gotten a moment together, maybe things would've been different."

Luke decided to leave two years ago. He left behind so much and one of the biggest things that was left behind was his girlfriend, Callie. Her boyfriends death hurt her so much. She hated the feeling of him not being there, she felt like she was talking to air when she tried to hear and talk to him. But she feels that if she writes letters to him he somehow gets them. These are all the letters she has wrote to him, all of them starting with two words. Dear Luke...
