Book Summary

They’re falling in love, yet they’ve never met. Maybe fate can intervene in a heartwarming “what-if” short story about new beginnings by the New York Times bestselling author of Yours Truly.

Holly is dealing with the impending death of her grandmother and still reeling from a bad breakup. One bright spot: a Valentine’s Day card on Holly’s windshield—even if it wasn’t meant for her. An amusing mistake soon turns into a lovely exchange of anonymous notes, little acts of kindness, and a growing affection between two strangers. What happens when one of them has to say goodbye?

My Review

Of all the short stories in the Meet Cute collection, this was my favorite one. Even though it was a quick read, it felt fully developed. I was pleasantly surprised by how emotional and heartfelt it was in just a few short pages. I thought the plot was creative and fun. I liked the characters and their banter. I thought the romance was done well. I liked the family dynamics with Holly. It was very cute. If this story were fleshed out into a full-length novel, I would pick it up. Definitely recommend this one!
