A high-octane, tautly-written dark romance with an unforgettable twist that will leave readers gasping, Pen Pal is a story of undeniable love from superstar J. T. Geissinger.

Now with an original bonus chapter, this BookTok sensation is not to be missed!


It all began with just one line. . .

The first letter arrived the day my husband was buried. It was postmarked from the state penitentiary and contained a single sentence:

I’ll wait forever if I have to.

It was signed by Dante, a man I didn’t know.

Out of simple curiosity, I wrote back to ask him what exactly he was waiting for. His reply?

You.

I told the mystery man he had the wrong girl. He said he didn’t. I said we’d never met, but he said I was wrong.

We went back and forth, exchanging letters every week that grew increasingly more intimate. Then, one day, the letters stopped. When I found out why, it was already too late.

Dante was at my doorstep.

And nothing on earth could have prepared me for what happened next.

Critic reviews

Amazing . . . I absolutely recommend this thriller of a book (Jotted by Jena)
If I could, I would give this book ten stars. It's one I likely will never forget (Two Book Pushers)
I swear, I am not exaggerating at all when I say that this author knows how to create hell of a book! . . . Think of it as a perfect mixture of suspense, thrill, humor and kink . . . A definite recommendation for the dark romance lovers out there! (The Abstract Books Blog, on Ruthless Creatures)
The banter is sexy foreplay but when they come together it is utterly explosive. The author never fails to deliver a couple that you will love hard (Keri Loves Books, on Carnal Urges)
Geissinger just continues to up the ante and I am hooked forever (The Book Refuge, on Savage Hearts)
This series just keeps getting better and better! I can always count on this author for a sexy and laugh-out-loud funny romance. She straddles these two extremes so very well (Book Twins Reviews, on Brutal Vows)

I’m honestly speechless! First of all the Duet Narration is impeccable! Literally flawless!
I devoured this book in one sitting it’s heartbreakingly beautiful. For the first 50-60% of the book I wasn’t sure at all on where it was headed and I was desperately trying to look for clues to solve it. I was all over the place trying to figure it out. I then had 2 solid theories on what was going on and where it would end up. Right up until the last few chapters I was undecided. I went through a whole host of emotions towards both the FMC & MMC and I just couldn’t quite decide exactly how I felt about either of them - and that changed from chapter to chapter, which doesn’t often happen for me. It all cleared up in the end though and I ADORE them!
I found the ending so conflicting personally that I can’t decide if I’m devastated or elated! It feels wrong to feel either emotion 😬
Honestly it’s Such a fantastic book! I look forward to a re-read/listen in the future!
Literally 10⭐️ 📖
Perfect 🌶️😍

Excellent narration. (Just ignore the attempt at a Scottish accent). Quite spooky but what a great story. An excellent listen.

Fantastic story
