Publisher's Summary

Some days, all you need is a message from a stranger. 

Ruby Santos knew exactly what she was getting herself into when she signed up to write a soldier overseas. The guidelines were simple: one letter or email a week for the length of his or her deployment. Care packages were optional. 

Been there, done that. She thought she knew what to expect. 

What she didn't count on was falling in love with the guy.

I need more

More, More! I need more!
I felt like the story ends abruptly. I could have done with another 3 or 4 chapters.
very cute story. it takes them awhile to get together but when they do it's hot and steamy and sadly the book ends before anything good really happens. no cliffhanger or dramatic scene very easy read

Another winner from Mariana Zapata

I love Mariana Zapata books on audio and this was no exception. However, I was a little disappointed that the duet-style narration was only for the epistolary format in the first half. When they finally meet, it’s just Callie. Overall though, I still enjoyed the book and would recommend reading before From Lukov With Love as Ruby talks a lot about her family – I did not do this 😅.

Ughhhh soooo good

Teddy Hamilton & Callie Dalton were **chefs kiss**
The combination of Zapatas words and their performance always makes for a great experience.

I had read/listened to From Lukov With Love and was excited to realise that Ruby had a book.
Absolutely loved watching Ruby's & Aaron's relationship grow.
Ugh, slow burn perfection yet again.

Truly delightful - slightly disappointed though

I really enjoyed this book. The development of the characters throughout the first half of the book through their emails and IMs was truly delightful. But I was super annoyed when they finally meet/start talking on the phone it’s no longer a dual narration. It’s just Callie. Why would you do that when you had Teddy Hamilton! He was so good as Aaron. It really took me out of it, particularly when Callie’s version of his voice had a really different accent. I kept waiting to hear Aaron’s (Teddy’s) voice. Anyway, despite that disappointment it was still good.

Great story!

Loved this, but the audio was a bit ordinary with some weird running noises in the background throughout the whole story which was distracting. But the rest was great!!

loved

I honestly thought I would get bored listening to so many emails, but nada. I found this so easy to listen to, and I adored both narrators.

Dear Aaron

If you’re looking for a steamy romance, this is not it. But if you’re looking for a beautiful friendship that turns into love, then this is a perfect book to read. I read the reviews before I started to listen to this and I have to agree that the ending wasn’t as complete as I would have liked, but the author didn’t leave you guessing about a happy ending or how they felt about each other.

sweeeet

got frustrated with the lack of alpha and her silly thoughts. very clean cut story but was stretched out way to long bordering frustration. wont read the innocent author again. I tend to enjoy a bit more grit and sass with the characters I read.
