Book: A Thousand Letters by Staci Hart

I've read a few of Staci Harts books and I have found that she has become on of my favorite contemporary romance authors. Her latest book, 'A Thousand Letters' blew me away! I have always loved Jane Austen and while Persuasion isn't my favorite Austen romance, Harts ability to adapt Austen's spirit into this modern romance was amazing. The story is told in two perspectives (Wade & Elliot) and each character is very introspective, creating an Austen-like atmosphere while you read.

If you like emotional stories... this one might be for you! Many times I felt my heart clench as I read this novel. It was both sad and hopeful. There are some great quotes about life and family as well. This book was right up my ally and I have recommended it to some of my fellow book friends already, as well as, add it to my 'Best Reads of 2017' list on Goodreads!

Sometimes your life is split by a single decision.

I’ve spent every day of the last seven years regretting mine: he left, and I didn’t follow. A thousand letters went unanswered, my words like petals in the wind, spinning away into nothing, taking me with them.

But now he’s back.

I barely recognize the man he’s become, but I can still see a glimmer of the boy who asked me to be his forever, the boy I walked away from when I was young and afraid.

Maybe if he’d come home under better circumstances, he could speak to me without anger in his voice. Maybe if I’d said yes all those years ago, he’d look at me without the weight of rejection in his eyes. Maybe if things were different, we would have had a chance.

One regretted decision sent him away. One painful journey brought him back to me. I only wish I could keep him.

*A contemporary romance inspired by Jane Austen’s Persuasion*
