The Love Letter by Rachel Hauck
3.0
I received a complimentary copy of this book from Thomas Nelson through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own..
Jess Gates is inspired to write a screenplay based on a love letter his great great great great great grandfather, who lived during Revolutionary times, wrote to a woman he didnt get a chance to marry. Chloe Dashle has been waiting for such a role all her life.
In this novel, we get both stories; the story of Chloe and Jesse, as well as the real story behind the letter that inspires the film. The book cuts back and forth between modern and revolutionary times, and is told in alternating voices of the main characters.
I have enjoyed Rachel Hauck’s stories in the past. This one was okay, but I found it to be a bit confusing at times. Also, some points had some supernatural occurrences that felt unbelievable to me. That being said, It was an interesting story about love, redemption, and God’s perfect timing.
