When Lily Harper discovers a dusty hatbox hidden in her late grandmother's flat, she expects old photographs or trinkets. What she finds instead changes everything - hundreds of unfinished love letters written for strangers who could never find the courage to say what mattered most. For forty years, Margaret Harper ran a secret letter-writing service. Confessions, apologies, last words, first loves - the things people never said aloud. And now, with thirty letters left, she wants Lily to finish her work. The problem Lily is good with people, not with words. The solution Oliver Ward - a brilliant, infuriating, emotionally allergic English teacher who once knew her grandmother and would absolutely prefer not to be involved. But Margaret Harper was nothing if not persistent. And soon Lily and Oliver find themselves reading the lives of strangers, rewriting heartbreaks and healing old wounds, one letter at a time. Their first mission Help an eighty-two-year-old widower tell the woman he loved before he met his wife that she mattered. As Lily and Oliver work through each confession, they're pulled into stories of regret, longing, hope, and second chances. And somewhere between the ink and the honesty, they begin confronting the truths they've been avoiding in their own lives. What begins with a box of forgotten letters slowly becomes something neither of them expected - a journey of healing, connection, and the possibility of love in the most unlikely place. Some letters change the lives of the people who receive them. Some change the lives of the people who write them. Return to Sender is a tender, slow-burn romance about words unsent, love unspoken, and the courage it takes to finally say what you feel.
