“Lyrical, heartbreaking, and emotionally intense, A THOUSAND LETTERS is a beautiful portrait of an undying love that deserves a second chance.”
— Melanie Harlow, USA Today Bestselling Author
A Thousand Letters, an all-new emotional standalone by Staci Hart is LIVE!!!
Sometimes your life is split by a single decision.
I’ve spent every day of the last seven years regretting mine: he left, and I didn’t follow. A thousand letters went unanswered, my words like petals in the wind, spinning away into nothing, taking me with them.
But now he’s back.
I barely recognize the man he’s become, but I can still see a glimmer of the boy who asked me to be his forever, the boy I walked away from when I was young and afraid.
Maybe if he’d come home under better circumstances, he could speak to me without anger in his voice. Maybe if I’d said yes all those years ago, he’d look at me without the weight of rejection in his eyes. Maybe if things were different, we would have had a chance.
One regretted decision sent him away. One painful journey bought him back to me. I only wish I could keep him.
*A contemporary romance inspired by Jane Austen’s Persuasion*

I was drawn to the synopsis of A Thousand Letters from the moment I read it. I was struck by what promised to be a torturously emotional read, and intrigued as to what could have been the cause of the dissolution of a love that seemed so great. Essentially it’s a second chance romance and a story of self discovery. It’s a gentle novel but it’s emotional impact is a huge one.
As well as living with a decision that directly shaped the course of her future, Elliot comes face to face with her past through a tragic circumstance. She loved and lost her soulmate before they were able to have the life they had planned for. Now with his return, in less jubilant circumstances, old wounds must be reopened before there can be any chance to heal.
The writing is poetic and easily drew on my emotions. I felt the deep yearning and the sadness of a love that was lost. The pain and fear conveyed were almost tangible, and I felt the author wonderfully navigated through the angst that circled throughout the novel. Admittedly I did become slightly distracted by the villainesque nature of Elliot’s family, but overall I enjoyed my first experience of Staci Hart’s wonderful writing.
About the Author:
Staci has been a lot of things up to this point in her life — a graphic designer, an entrepreneur, a seamstress, a clothing and handbag designer, a waitress. Can’t forget that. She’s also been a mom, with three little girls who are sure to grow up to break a number of hearts. She’s been a wife, though she’s certainly not the cleanest, or the best cook. She’s also super, duper fun at a party, especially if she’s been drinking whiskey.
From roots in Houston to a seven year stint in Southern California, Staci and her family ended up settling somewhere in between and equally north, in Denver. They are new enough that snow is still magical. When she’s not writing, she’s reading, sleeping, gaming, or designing graphics.
