Summary

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。

Es una historia ligera y justo lo que necesitaba, me gustó bastante :)

"You say that your scared but I'm scared to, to live in this world without you。" This book was so gorgeous and listening to the song afterwards is amazing。 "You say that your scared but I'm scared to, to live in this world without you。" This book was so gorgeous and listening to the song afterwards is amazing。 。。。more

This book was really good。 The end sort of broke my heart a little。 The ‘spice’ was written very well。

Semplice, lineare e non poi così “Dirty”。 Un duo che mi piace sempre, e che questa volta ha dosato la dolcezza e la delicatezza di un amore in maniera sublime。 Forse dista un po’ dai romanzo precedenti della coppia, più forti e libidinosi。 Ma Scrivimi ancora verrà ricordato per la delicatezza e la forza che porta con sé, e per il grande amore che ancora una volta vince su tutto。

es un libro que se lee rápido, pero siento que no se lleva bien la historia。 todo ocurre muy rápido y no te da tiempo de procesar lo que va pasando。 la protagonista sufre de ansiedad y, como una persona que tiene trastorno de ansiedad generalizado, estaba esperado conectar mucho con ella。。。 pero no creo que se haya tratado de la mejor manera el tema。 por otro lado tenemos a griffin, nuestro interés amoroso, una estrella de rock muy sensual。 yo lo encontré insoportable jajaja。 creo que las autora es un libro que se lee rápido, pero siento que no se lleva bien la historia。 todo ocurre muy rápido y no te da tiempo de procesar lo que va pasando。 la protagonista sufre de ansiedad y, como una persona que tiene trastorno de ansiedad generalizado, estaba esperado conectar mucho con ella。。。 pero no creo que se haya tratado de la mejor manera el tema。 por otro lado tenemos a griffin, nuestro interés amoroso, una estrella de rock muy sensual。 yo lo encontré insoportable jajaja。 creo que las autoras se fueron al chancho con esto de "hombre escrito por mujer", porque llegaba a ser hasta ridículo su personaje。en fin, no hay mucho más que decir。 si quieren un libro para pasar el rato, pueden leer este supongo。 。。。more

Griffin simplemente te amo, es tan bueno y paciente。 A pesar de lo especial que es Luca jamás la presiona, al contrario siempre ve por ella y por sus necesidades。 Es el tipo de chico que no le importa dejar todo a cambio de la felicidad del amor de su vida。 Como pareja son perfectos, son comunicativos y siempre trataban de solucionar sus problemas。 Definitivamente Hortencia es lo mejor del mundo。 Esa cerdita es lo más bello que existe。 Y nada que decir del Doc, más que un psiquiatra fue un amigo para ambos personajes。 Fue un personaje clave en esta novela。 。。。more

Made me kinda emotional but my feelings have been all over the place lately anyways

Emotional, interesting, respectful, funnyBravo! Fantastic! What a freaking excellent roller coaster ride of emotions from beginning to the end。 I truly loved the storyline。 Luca and Griffin Were two very strong main characters。 I loved how no matter what life put them through, they came through stronger (even if the character didn't realize it)。 There is so much to this story I can only say to read it。 There are so many aspects brought to the forefront in this story, but done in a respectful way Emotional, interesting, respectful, funnyBravo!

Actual Rating: 2。5/5 I didn't hate it, but didn't love it either。 Regardless, I finished it within 1 day。 It was a fun quick read for me。 It had fluff but also dealt with an extremely heavy topic so I liked that。 Griffin is basically every Wattpad reader's fantasy brought to life。 A rockstar who's sweeter than the sweetest delight there is。 That's all I have to say。P。s, it was like Punk 57 but I never finished reading that because it was too much for me, this one however was like a watered-down Actual Rating: 2。5/5 I didn't hate it, but didn't love it either。 Regardless, I finished it within 1 day。 It was a fun quick read for me。 It had fluff but also dealt with an extremely heavy topic so I liked that。 Griffin is basically every Wattpad reader's fantasy brought to life。 A rockstar who's sweeter than the sweetest delight there is。 That's all I have to say。P。s, it was like Punk 57 but I never finished reading that because it was too much for me, this one however was like a watered-down version of that。 。。。more

Not sure why I expected more from a KU pick。 Plot was ok, but it was just poorly written。 The letters were like 15 year olds writing (and that’s being generous)。 My expectations are always low for KU but this didn’t even come close to meeting those low expectations。 🤷🏻‍♀️

The realness of this book is what put it on a pedestal for me。 It was about stupid things like another girl/guy or family drama or shit but rather about her mental health issues and how she needed to think of and put herself first before pulling someone else along with her into a spiral she couldn't get a handle on herself。 The realness of this book is what put it on a pedestal for me。 It was about stupid things like another girl/guy or family drama or shit but rather about her mental health issues and how she needed to think of and put herself first before pulling someone else along with her into a spiral she couldn't get a handle on herself。 。。。more

4。5- Quick, instant love story that I didn’t mind because I’ve seen wayyyy worse。 I love Griffin and Luca。 They had amazing chemistry。 I loved that they gave each other a safe place, normalcy, and helped uplift each other to overcome fears。 To me, that’s what love is。 Oh, Griffin also unashamedly and completely/loudly loved Luca, and I love when the guy falls first and fights for the relationship

Jen Harris

UnexpectedThis book has a surprising amount of feels and left me a little misty eyed。 Amazing portrayal of someone with anxiety issues that came off true and I loved being with Luca on her journey。

the second and third acts are almost perfectly on par。 The third act does have a different take to the ending of most, but it also works very well for the story, and I won't kick it out of bed。 (No pun intended。)Let's go to my following critique。 This one has to do with a story structure issue。 I'm not going to give spoilers, but essentially here is the problem I had。 The letters the couple sends to each other have a very distinct tone to them。 After listening to the book, I understand the letters were written first, and the story fit in around them。 The reason I say this, there are times the letters feel tonally entirely different to the character who supposedly wrote them。 Now, eventually, it's smoothed over in the edit with the way the narration goes, but there are so many little things that don't feel right to the characters。 And no spoilers, but the big one for me was the Ferby discussion。 It eventually becomes a mulligan needed in the plot。 Still, the introduction was jarring and made no sense to the tone of the character I had just spent so much time and heartbreak with。 I mean, really jarring, way out of the left field, and I had to go back and listen again to make sure I hadn't gotten it wrong。 I'm fine if things are plotted out, but things like that specific letter and passage and some others just felt very out of place at times。 I have no idea how or what the fix is for that either。 It wasn't just one thing, nor is it tied to sexual things, nor is it even oversized items。 These out-of-place pieces were many little things, generally preferences that the characters had specifically for some things they enjoyed。 The only spoiler one I will talk about is this。 One of the characters said that due to something happening, they do not like music。 Later on, the other character asks them a music question。 I kept thinking, "Oh, how sad this will be when that person finds out they do not like music," and, well, that didn't happen。 They blew past the quirk。 So it's akin to, you meet a person, you see how they live, and then out of the blue, they tell you that they do something or like something, that doesn't fit whom they have presented。 And then the other person does that as well。 And sure, we can smooth it over with "Personal preferences," but, at the same time, the image of the person presented doesn't make that preference make sense at times。 So there you go。 That's a critique。 I'm sure I cannot be the only one who found some of the letters jarring。 Now to what I did love about "Dirty Letters," we start with the character building。 These characters are believable, not cliche at all, have absolute truth to them, and come across well (except in letters at times)。 Yes, my critique stands, but the warmth and sadness, as well as the character depth of each specific person, resonates。 No one character, not even NPC characters, is without heart and blood。 I found the work done was deep and lasting。 I found the relationships realistic。 I found the chemistry accurate of every character in their respective relationships。Next, the thing that sold this book for me was the honest talk about mental illness, how that could affect relationships, long-term and short-term, and how tough it can be to be a caregiver。 I know this is out of the blue, but I love this aspect of the story so much。 To me, there was so much depth from this aspect alone。 And yes, it's a romance novel, but I was not at all expecting to see a realistic depiction of caregiving。 Fun fact, I know a lot about loving someone who has trouble trying to leave the house。 No, it wasn't an ex or the current Mr。 Y。, but I had a family member with troubles。 Novels like this, who bring mental illness and how it affects the people with it and who love them, help destigmatize the entire problem by reaching out for help。 I think that was great, and I would love to see more books be honest about topics like this。 Without advertising this book as one with a mental illness aspect, they seamlessly put this topic into the writing without making it uncomfortable or awkward。 Both writers are writing a book just about a real relationship that can happen。Okay, so this is a romance novel, and thus, a dirty one by the subgenera, so the question comes up。 How was the sex scene or scenes in the novel? I found the scenes were realistic, had great chemistry, had true passion behind the words, and were rather hot。 I didn't find the scenes distracting with improbable positions that break physics。 Nor was Newton there shaking his head about the laws he wrote for gravity, forgotten in the manuscript。 Sex scenes should be believable and hot; that's all they need to be。 I liked them for what they were。 I also loved the kisses and intimate holding and touching just as much and felt that this made a realistic relationship on paper。 Lastly, I think the narration combo was sublime。 Andi Arndt and Jacob Morgan worked together on this story, alternating the points of view on the story and making it a beautiful performance。 Both have these vulnerabilities, and both have dynamic strengths in the story that harmoniously move together。 Sometimes in a chapter, both voices are heard。 It depends on if there is a letter or not, and other times it's not that way。 I loved how they worked together, and I felt that they made this entire novel very special。 So with that in mind and all the scoring that I do, I'm giving "Dirty Letters" a score of 89/100, which is a 4-star review on Goodreads, Audible, and my blog。 Please stay tuned on my blog to compare and contrast this book and the Clean Romance book I reviewed last week! 。。。more

ok so I am DNf'ing this book as of right now。 I really liked the idea and concept when I saw someone post about it, and I even liked the beginning。 But I am about 30% in and I normally hate stopping but I just feel really no connection to the characters and felt like the pacing was maybe not for me。This is not to discourage you because never trust a review the DNF's a book LOL。 But for now so I can focus on some others I'm going to step away and hopefully come back and feel a bit differently! ok so I am DNf'ing this book as of right now。 I really liked the idea and concept when I saw someone post about it, and I even liked the beginning。 But I am about 30% in and I normally hate stopping but I just feel really no connection to the characters and felt like the pacing was maybe not for me。This is not to discourage you because never trust a review the DNF's a book LOL。 But for now so I can focus on some others I'm going to step away and hopefully come back and feel a bit differently! 。。。more

Amazing!This book is very enjoyable。 It keeps you wanting more。 A romance that touches the heart。 5 Star all the way 👍 I’ve really enjoyed reading novels from Vi Keeland & Penelope Ward。 They are truly talented writers。 I’m addicted to their story telling。 Happily Letter After, Hate Notes are a couple other novels I’ve read recently plus others。 They definitely don’t disappoint, highly recommend novels by these ladies especially if you love Romance Novels。

"The Story of a Love Song" ist ein Einzelband vom Autorinnenduo VI Keeland und Penelope Ward。Was mir gut gefällt:Die Geschichte ist locker und leicht, das ist fast schon ein richtiges Wohlfühlbuch。 Die Charaktere gefallen mir eigentlich alle ganz gut。 Ein paar Ecken und Kanten mehr hätten meiner Meinung nach aber auch nicht geschadet。 Die Protagonisten schicken sich im Verlauf der Geschichte immer wieder Briefe。 Das gefällt mir gut, so wirklich realistisch ist das aber auch nicht。 Ich kenne niem "The Story of a Love Song" ist ein Einzelband vom Autorinnenduo VI Keeland und Penelope Ward。Was mir gut gefällt:Die Geschichte ist locker und leicht, das ist fast schon ein richtiges Wohlfühlbuch。 Die Charaktere gefallen mir eigentlich alle ganz gut。 Ein paar Ecken und Kanten mehr hätten meiner Meinung nach aber auch nicht geschadet。 Die Protagonisten schicken sich im Verlauf der Geschichte immer wieder Briefe。 Das gefällt mir gut, so wirklich realistisch ist das aber auch nicht。 Ich kenne niemanden, der heutzutage noch Briefe schreibt。 Die Dialoge zwischen den Protagonisten sind teilweise recht witzig, driften aber leider immer schnell in Dirty Talk ab。Was mir nicht so gut gefällt:Ich habe persönlich kein Problem mit Erotikszenen und Dirty Talk。 Hier ist das aber schon fast etwas zu viel des Guten。 Dadurch fehlt es meiner Ansicht nach an Tiefe und Emotionen。 Der Originaltitel des Buches lautet "Dirty Letters"。 Das passt viel besser zur Geschichte als "The Story of a love Song"! Die Geschichte strotzt leider vor Klischees, teilweise ist sie mir auch fast schon ein wenig zu kitschig。 Das ist aber nur meine persönliche Meinung。 Auf das Rockstarleben des Protagonisten wird irgendwie kaum eingegangen, das ist fast schon Nebensache。 Das Buch fokussiert sich hauptsächlich auf die Erotik。Von mir gibt es 3 Sterne。 Wer eine locker leichte Liebesgeschichte mit vielen erotischen Szenen lesen möchte, ist mit diesem Buch gut beraten。 Wer tiefsinnige Gespräche und Charaktere mit richtigen Ecken und Kanten sucht, sollte sich lieber nach anderen Romanen umschauen。 Für mich ist "The Story of a Love Song" ein gutes Buch für zwischendurch, ein richtiges Highlight ist es aber leider nicht。Hier folgen noch ein paar Infos zum Hörbuch:10 Stunden und 23 Minuten / Ungekürzte AusgabeSprecher: Louis Friedemann Thile, Karo RieperIch würde den Sprechern 4 Sterne geben。 Die Vertonung gefällt mir gut。Verlag: LYX。audio 。。。more

This was a happy surprise。 A super quick read and a good amount of emotional depth that I honestly wasn't expecting。 I really loved the pen pals (and its rekindling in present day) It helped make the connection and therefore relationship believable。 I had no clue that the MC had agoraphobia and while I have absolutely zero experience with it, I felt like her trauma was handled very well。 And rockstar romances are honestly just really fun to read, so I had a good time。 This was a happy surprise。 A super quick read and a good amount of emotional depth that I honestly wasn't expecting。 I really loved the pen pals (and its rekindling in present day) It helped make the connection and therefore relationship believable。 I had no clue that the MC had agoraphobia and while I have absolutely zero experience with it, I felt like her trauma was handled very well。 And rockstar romances are honestly just really fun to read, so I had a good time。 。。。more
