Description

Love is universal. As is heartbreak. Forbidden love makes the heart race. Lost love creates an ache that can last an eternity. Love letters can be heartbreaking or exhilarating. They can create hope or dash it. They can be written to future loves, current loves or past loves. They can bring comfort or despair. In this anthology, you'll find it all, and each story has its own voice and its own message. A Change of Circumstances-The application is complete, but her questions remain. Will she measure up? Is she making a mistake? A Smile-Sometimes the smallest things can make the biggest difference in someone's life. A Twins' Blessing-Folklore and twins. Grief and joy. Dear X-A letter we've all written. Letters of Tragedy-Three stories in one that look at a famous tragedy from different perspectives. Love Letter to Life-A brutally honest letter about depression, fear, and strength. Love Letters to the Lonely Hearts-A reminder that we're not alone, especially when we feel like we are. Love's Voyage to Eternity-A lovely poem about the choices we make, and how we're not alone in our journey. My Dearest Robert-A joyous remembrance of a life together. Neptune's Compassion-A love story that ends with a mystery. Sealed With a Kiss-Deciding to choose hope over fear. The Forbidden Kiss-A young girl's mental gymnastics about her relationship with her teacher. Ticket 972, A Saturday Morning at the DMV, and Colin-Sometimes life is predictable. And sometimes something unexpected happens. Written in Stone-Sometimes things are just meant to be. This anthology was written by authors who signed up for the 2020 Love Letters Short Story Challenge, hosted by author, Michelle Francik. They met the challenge and this anthology is the end result! Also included is a chapter about our past Challenge winners; what they're up to and how they felt about the Challenges they participated in! Love is a risk. So is choosing a good book. Take a chance on these authors and their stories. Find your soulmate. Let go of your fear. Read their stories. Find the perfect Love Letter for you!
