I have a hard time with the whole 11-12 year olds falling in love thing. I mean. . . it just seems so strange. It would have made better sense if it was high school at the least.
Some things did not make sense - the iPhone snapping shut, checking out of a hotel when they were at a cabin, whitewater rafting before breakfast? I really didn't follow that whole weekend very well. The time line was confusing. Did they ever have their couples massage? I don't even know!

A light-hearted fun read. This book will make you happy no matter what. It's a story about following your heart. Chloe Rogers is set to marry a hard-working, handsome banker.

Chloe is set to marry Richard, but her former boyfriend, Josh, moves back into town and throws a kink into Chloe's plans. She realizes that she still has feelings for Josh, and is torn between the two men she loves.
Richard is self-involved, money-oriented, and not very kind or supportive to Chloe. He really irritated me because he treated Chloe so poorly at times. Josh is free-spririted, and he encourages Chloe to follow her dreams and passions. The two men are like night and day.

Love Letters was a DNF for me. I only read about 30% into it before I decided that it wasn’t for me. The book starts out fairly strong, though from the beginning I did not like the main character of Chloe. Her indecision between a guy that treats her like dirt and her old flame was really annoying. Her fiance acted that she wasn’t there half the time and when he did acknowledge her, he does so with disdain. Chloe’s interest in him seems to be solely based on the fact that he has money and that r...more
Cover Thoughts: I love the balled up paper with "I love you" written on it. I love it because it's cute and because I think it fits the story well. A balled up piece of paper usually means it's thrown away, forgotten. Those love letters were forgotten as well.
First off, I really enjoyed Solon's writing and I look forward to reading more by her. I enjoyed Chloe, Josh, Suzanne, and even Richard. They were all well developed. I would have to say that Suzanne was my favorite character. She's funny a...more

This book was a contemporary romance that quickly captured my attention. I didn't want to stop reading even when I had other things to do, like sleep! I laughed and cried and found myself hoping that Chloe would wake up before it was too late and ditch Richard to be with Josh. I felt a connection to the characters - especially Chloe and Nicole and could see the storyline continuing into a series (not that I'm aware of any plans to do so). I would...more

THis book was pretty decent. It was a little cheesy. You could predict the ending but it was still fun to read. Its about a girl named Chloe who is engaged to a man named Richard, they have dated for two years. Her young lover from Jr. High showed up and they ran into each other. His name is Hosh . He moved back from Oregon to California just to get Chloe back. Chloe doesnt know that. She ends up having to choose Richard or Josh.

As she is planning her wedding her first love Josh comes back into town. All Chloe can think is why is he back?

This book I found was great cause as Chloe is making these big decisions she also helps her mother reunited with...more

This is a good story. It includes lost first-loves and second chances. I had a clear picture of each of the characters and felt that the author crafted them well. The novel has everything it needs; a strained mother/daughter relationship, a crazed, jilted lover, a wedding, and a sweet, little dog named Greta.
The story was fun. The author could have chosen different endings for this story. I like the one she chose to write. True love's power should never be underestimated.

I had the pleasure of corresponding with Ms. Solon, and found her to be just as charming as her characters. Love Letters is truly a story of second chances. Love lingers on every page. The story is sweet and realistic--I could see the characters playing out before me as I read. This is a book for anyone who feels love in the blood that rushes through them with every fiber of their being. Anyone who has thought about their first love and wondered, "What if". If you're ready for an easy read that...more
I loved this book. It was so hard to put down. I read it in a day.
I loved how the writing style was easy to read and you got hooked from page 1.
I really felt for Chloe. She had to chose between 2 loves. Not everyone has that chance with their first love again.
I found myself wanting to yell a few times about the character Richard and the things he does.
I highly recommend it.

Love Letters, Geraldine Solon (my dear friend, a remarkably talented lady who can produce page turners like I’ve never seen…will be seeing her rise to the top*-you go GIRL!)
I kept turning the pages...like i kept turning the pages in Nicholas Sparks's "The Notebook". Routing for Chloe to marry Josh. Great twist n turns, keeping us guessing on the edge of our seats.

I really liked this book. It sent me through many emotions. A few of the characters were annoying, for example, Richard's mother. Suzanne was a little over the top at first, but she definitely grew on me throughout the book. This book is a perfect example that it is never too late to fall in love, and sometimes people deserve second chances. Very enjoyable!
Really did not like this book. Writing was weak and I honestly couldn't get through it. I read to about 60% and just couldn't take anymore.
The book is well written, although the love story is too dramatic, which makes it a happily-ever-after type of romance.
Other then some typos I liked the book The main character had me yelling at her for her fickleness I Love sappy Love Stories.
A predictable love story. Happily Ever after is fltaken care of. An easy summer read if you are just looking to relax.

it was cute
3 and a half Stars.
I really liked the story-line on this one but I just thought it was poorly written. Liked the characters and how the story turned out, just felt as if I were reading a high school paper instead of a published book.
Very very good. Not always do I find a book that I enjoy the subplots and secondary characters as much as the main ones. Left me smiling.
Easy read...but predictable.
