Summary

When Phoebe starts receiving anonymous letters, she never once thinks the most irresponsible man in London is her correspondent. Or that she will fall in love with him.

Phoebe Kimball grew up believing in love, but after failing to find a gentleman capable of capturing her heart, she has turned more practical than romantic. She is determined to find a husband in London this season. If only the annoying Mr. Fenwick would stop appearing every time she sets her cap at someone! When an anonymous letter arrives warning her that her current target is unsuitable marital material, Phoebe begins a relationship with the letter writer that promises something more than a practical alliance. 

Griffin Fenwick does not usually care for women on the hunt for a husband, but Miss Kimball's quick wit and refusal to admit she enjoys his company intrigues him. When he realizes the gentlemen on her list of eligible bachelors is full with scoundrels, he warns her the only way he can - through a letter. As he comes to know Phoebe better, he soon realizes he wishes to put his own name on her list. If only she liked Griffin as much as she liked her anonymous correspondent.

When Phoebe realizes its been Griffin writing her all along, will she put aside practicality for love, or spurn Griffin for even trying to woo her?

Letters for Phoebe is the first in a series of books about five friends. The next four novellas will be written by authors Joanna Barker, Megan Walker, Heidi Kimball, and Arlem Hawks.

Very disappointing

This is a "NOTHING" story it has no real tale, no real characters. It starts off with some humour, but quickly loses that.
I was bored practically from the start, kept hoping for a reprieve, no luck. It is not even worth trying to explain what it was about.
Sadly Author's thrown out duds, such as this in a good collection. Not worth a credit.

Sweet

A sweet and light hearted romance. No angst, no villains or sex. It moved along at a good pace.

Excellent Story, Well Read

Sally Britton has such a talent for creating a complete story with complex characters even in a novella. This story is no exception. Letters for Phoebe is a delightful clean regency romance, The narration is lovely and adds life to an already great story.

Letters for Phoebe is such a beautiful story!!

Letters for Phoebe by Sally Britton is such a beautiful story!! I loved how Miss Phoebe Kimball and Mr. Griffin Fenwick got to know each other better through their correspondence with each other, albeit one knew the other (better) in real life. Griffin was such a great, good-humored character that felt so refreshing, while at the same time it was so sweet getting to glimpse his more serious, caring side. And Miss Phoebe, she was so lucky to have a friend in him, to look out for her and advise her on her next decisions. I eagerly anticipated every interaction between these two, and definitely enjoyed reading how they slowly started to develop feelings for each other *le happy sigh*.

As for the narrator, I think she did an incredible work bringing to life all the characters and all their emotions. Personally, though, there was a moment in the story when it felt like Griffin's mother's voice changed too much for it to be believable that it was still the same person speaking. But notwithstanding that minor fact, I truly enjoyed listening to this book, since it fairly transported me to the setting right beside the characters :)

Overall, a great introduction to this new, multi-author series, perfect for fans of the authors as well as the Sweet Historical Romance genre. Can't wait to follow the stories of the rest of the friends! ~ 5 stars

I absolutely loved this story!

I love this story. What a great start to the series. When I first started reading it, I couldn’t help but think of it as a Regency adaptation of “You’ve Got Mail” (a movie I also happen to love) but even though there are some similarities, the story shines on its own. I loved Griffins outgoing and witty personality. He is full of life and is always doing something to make others laugh. It’s not even so much the actions that I found loveable so much as the intent behind them. He is always caring and kind. Wanting to do whatever is in his capability to help another. Phoebe’s personality also intrigued me for it’s complexities. A practical and reserved character she initially comes across as sever but as we continue along we see her open up and realise that she really just wants to be loved and cared for and have someone to show that same care and love for.
Wonderfully narrated by the lovely Jessica Elisa Boyd (who is always a pleasure to listen to in my opinion), this clean and wholesome book left this reader smiling and content, yet eager for more.
I received a copy of this book with no obligation to leave a review. All thoughts expressed are my own.
