Christiana Jones dreamed her whole life of living in Huntsville, Alabama, so she can’t figure out why it doesn’t feel like home. Her relationships—on social media and in real life—seem shallow and empty. When she unearths a stack of her grandparents’ letters, it spurs an idea. Could she find something deeper with a penpal?
Jordan White is taken aback when his cousin Tina suggests he become penpals with her childhood best friend. What could a Louisiana boy have in common with a girl two states away? After all, he’s happily settled on his family’s property and working the job he always wanted. But every letter they exchange has him wishing for more.
As they grow closer through their written words, the miles between them seem to grow wider. Can love cross the distance and bring them home?
Thank you so much for these sweet words!
My absolute pleasure, Amy!
I like to receive cards and letters, from what my cients tell me, so do they, as quite a few like to receive the birthday cards and Christmas cards I mail! It’s nice to know someone took the time to actually write a card!!
Agreed. Letters take more time and that’s what makes them extra special. Thanks for the comment!
I completely agree with you, Trudy, and yours sound so special!
I love both – writing and receiving the cards! The feeling that someone was thinking of you <3
It’s always wonderful to be thought of!
Thanks for stopping by.
Right, Natalya? I save all of mine!
Sounds wonderful!
I love the hope that God will guide what I write so the words will be a blessing to the reader.
Oh, that’s a great hope!
You are always a blessing to me, Autumn!
I love sending cards and love the idea of letter writing in stories.
I love sending cards, too. 🙂
Thanks for the comment.
It is so special these days, Lisa, in an age of ” instant messaging”!
Would love to win a print copy! Appreciate the opportunity to enter this wonderful, inspiring giveaway!
Thanks for stopping by today!
Thank you, Lual! Your cards are always appreciated, I am sure! I love the bookmarks you make by hand!
I have always loved sending and receiving cards. It is like sharing your heart with someone else…In today’s world with texting, a special card or thought means so much!!! I also save my very special cards, they are precious to me!…Would absolutely love to receive a copy of your book. I am always looking forward to reading a new author I have not read yet! I only read print books as an ebook is too hard on eyes.
You are so right, Lynn, a card or letter is so special these days!
I love how you put that, Lynn. Sharing your heart. Thanks for the comment!
I always love to both write and receive letters, cards and notes. I have done the card ministry to the sick and shut in at church.
I know the shut ins appreciate that so much. Such a great ministry!
That’s lovely, Merry! What a great idea!
I have always loved to write and receive letters. When I moved away from my home town my sister and I would write each other and see who could write the longest letters. 100 pages. I’ve also written letters in long distance relationship. I love a letter you can hold knowing your loved one has held it and can read it over and over again.
Oh my goodness! I can’t imagine a 100 page letter! That’s such a fun story. Thanks for sharing.
Yikes, Dianne, 100 pages is amazing! I agree, love holding that piece of mail in my hands!
I love getting surprises in the mail. I also am touched when people take the time from their busy schedules to mail me a card or a note. I always try to respond in kind.
Surprises are so fun to get in the mail!
That’s it exactly, Cherie! Surprises in the mail! I love it phrased that way!
I like to write letters to family and friends with the hope that it will lift their spirits to get some “happy mail “ in their mailbox.
I don’t write near as many letters as I should!
Thanks for the chance to win the book.
I don’t write as many letters as I should either, but I agree with them being called happy mail. Thanks for stopping by.
I am sure you do indeed lift their spirits, Terry!
