Book Description: For three years, Penny Ercanbeck has been opening other people's mail. Dead ends are a reality for clerks at the Dead Letter Office. Still she dreams of something more--a bit of intrigue, a taste of romance, or at least a touch less loneliness. When a letter from a brokenhearted man to his one true love falls into her hands, Penny seizes this chance to do something heroic. It becomes her mission to place this lost letter into the hands of its intended recipient.
Thomas left his former life with no intention of ending up in Azure Springs, Iowa. He certainly didn't expect a happy ending after what he had done. All he wanted to do was run and never look back. In a moment of desperation, he began to write, never really expecting a reply.
When Penny's undertaking leads her to the intriguing man who touched her soul with his words, everything grows more complicated. She wants to find the rightful owner of the letter and yet she finds herself caring--perhaps too much--for the one who wrote it.
My Thoughts: I have become so enthralled with dead letters. What happened, where is the person who expected the letter to go through, and is there a mystery or an ending?
But best of all Penny's job is to open other people's mail. Ahh many a dream come true!
This book/story did not disappoint. I loved the story of Penny and Thomas.
Penny is one of those women who is looking for a little excitement or mystery so when a dead letter comes across her desk and she opens a letter from Thomas.
Thomas has sort.of given up on life. But, wait! there's more. Penny feels that the recipient of this letter needs to read this letter because Thomas pours his heart out on paper and writes a letter that explains his heart brokenness and it ends up in the dead letter office!
Penny feels that this could be her mission to right something. She goes in search of the correct recipient of the letter and while on this mission she finds that she is falling for the writer of the letter.
Such a wonderful, well written story. I loved it! And think you will too.
