This was such a sweet and cute Valentine’s short story! I loved that it went heavy on the email communication, it made the story flow quickly and was a fun twist. It gave 2000’s teen romcom vibes. I didn’t expect the story to span so many years but enjoyed it. I recommend this for anyone looking for a quick festive story.

A sweet, wholesome and funny Valentine's Day themed epistolary short story. 

During the email exchange I found it a bit difficult to keep the characters apart.
