There were a couple of minor inconsistencies with Julian’s father, and a couple other small things that took me out of the story for those moments but otherwise I loved this. It needed an epilogue, or a couple more chapters. I didn’t feel like Hallie had fully worked through her grief, and I really wanted to see Julian make some kind of official stance with his career besides “I’m not going anywhere”, but I loved this all the same. The characters were bright and even the supporting characters were interesting and drew me in. Also, signing a petition to give Julian some kind of award for that dirty talk ‘cause damn.

I’m a massive Tessa Bailey fan, so getting this arc was really exciting, and it did not disappoint! She really is the queen of dirty talk, I found the characters so easy to love and relatable. Honestly, I was surprised by how much I loved this book bc the premise is not something I’d normally be into.. I went in worrying it would be a long term exchange of letters, which I feel often borders on emotional manipulation, but I didn’t get that here. I appreciated the anxiety rep and showing the depths it can reach - the dark hole Julian goes into is something I think a lot of people can relate to and I loved seeing it in a romance hero . These two were so cute and it was such a fun read!! Definitely recommend, but check TW’s
