I had a lot of fun reading this one! It was a little dirty, and the characters had a few little quirks, but Griffin and Luca really did belong together!

I’d never forgotten him—a man I’d yet to meet.

Griffin Quinn was my childhood pen pal, the British boy who couldn’t have been more different from me. Over the years, through hundreds of letters, we became best friends, sharing our deepest, darkest secrets and forming a connection I never thought could break.

Until one day it did.

Then, out of the blue, a new letter arrived. A scathing one—one with eight years of pent-up anger. I had no choice but to finally come clean as to why I stopped writing.

Griffin forgave me, and somehow we were able to rekindle our childhood connection. Only now we were adults, and that connection had grown to a spark. Our letters quickly went from fun to flirty to downright dirty, revealing our wildest fantasies. So it only made sense that we would take our relationship to the next level and see each other in person.

Only Griff didn’t want to meet. He asked that I trust him and said it was for the best. But I wanted more—more Griff, in the flesh—so I took a big chance and went looking for him. People have done crazier things for love.

But what I found could change everything.

When this duo puts out a book, you can guarantee that I'm going to pick it up. I was so excited to get my hands on it. Dirty Letters was such a nice romance; childhood pen pals that turn into something serious. However, they both had secrets, and pasts that could derail their happiness.

I was actually a little confused to begin with as I've only known Luca to be a boys name, so I kept reading until I did realise she was actually a girl. I could see that she had a few issues and was trying to become a stronger person.

The way Griffin inserted himself back into Lucas' life was amusing, writing a little drunken letter to a girl that he hadn't heard from in so long. Who would've thought that he would hear from her again! I liked that they formed that stronger connection and it turned into something dirty and hot! There was no doubt that these two were going to have amazing chemistry, it was getting past those secrets and past issues that was going to make it hard!

Even though Luca had lost so much, I was amazed with the support she had from Doc. He was a bit quirky, but so patient and sweet. He encouraged Luca throughout her journey but never really pushed her too hard out of her comfort zone.

I really enjoyed this read, although a few moments annoyed me, but I knew that these two would continue to work hard to find their happiness. The biggest moment that touched my heart was in the epilogue... I may've shed a tear or two! I must congratulate Keeland & Ward on another read that has touched my heart with it's sweetness, the intensity and the chemistry!


This was one sweet, intense moment!

He placed his hands around my face. “You look like you’re about to cry. I’ve fucked this all up. I would never want to hurt you like that. You mean so fucking much to me.” He backed me up against the wall, pressing his rock-hard body against mine. “Luca . . . my beautiful Luca.”
My voice was shaky. “Griffin?”
“How did you find me, my impulsive girl?” He shook his head. “Never mind. Don’t answer that yet.”
He leaned in and smashed his lips against mine, kissing me so hard, I was practically seeing stars. My entire body felt weightless as I melted into him, our tongues colliding in a wet and delicious frenzy as we made up for years of lost kisses.
“Goddamn, Luca, you taste so good,” he muttered over my lips. “I feel like I’ve been waiting my whole life for this.”
