Letters to the wrong address

Author : ELSPETH GARROW

She moved into the wrong flat. His love letters were still arriving.

When piano tuner June Archer starts again in Bristol, she finds three love letters waiting on the hall table of her new flat. They’re hand-delivered every Sunday night and addressed to the woman who lived there before her. June only means to send them back, so she leaves a note in the old green milk box on the porch.

The man who wrote them writes back.

What begins as an apology turns into a secret correspondence between two strangers who promise never to learn each other’s names. Week after week they leave each other letters in the milk box, about grief, about regret, and about the things you can only say to someone who can’t see your face.

Then June realises who he is: Elliot Rowe, the man she left on a railway platform ten years ago with a cold coffee, an engagement ring and six words on the back of a ticket.

He doesn’t know it’s her. Or he says he doesn’t.

The longer the letters go on, the harder the truth is to send, and some letters, once they’re posted, can never be taken back.

Letters to the Wrong Address is a tender, funny and heartbreaking second-chance romance about lost love, old wounds and finding your way home. It’s partly told through letters and set between rainy Bristol, the Northumberland coast and the station platform where everything ended. If you love emotional love stories, slow-burn reunions and characters who earn their happy ending, this is the book you’ll press into a friend’s hands.

Perfect for fans of One Day, The Flatshare and The Last Letter from Your Lover.
