Thank you to NetGalley and Random House Ballantine for an eARC in exchange for my honest review. 

This is such a beautiful, heartbreaking, and heartwarming story all wrapped together. This story is an emotional rollercoaster that will really tug on your heart strings. Just something to keep in mind before you jump in.

Love, Holly deals with loss, loneliness, grief as well as healing, love and forgiveness. 

Holly was driving with her pregnant sister on Christmas eve when they had what would become a life changing car accident.

Three years later Holly’s family has disowned her completely. Holly decides to join a lonely hearts pen pal group. In this group you send a letter to an anonymous person to get your feelings out. 

One day, Holly receives a letter from someone named Emma and she mentions a specific café with art all over the walls. The café turned out to be the exact one where Holly and her sister stopped before their accident. It was on that same dreadful Christmas Eve she bumped into Jack which caused him to spill coffee everywhere. 

Holly felt an immediate connection to Emma and she couldn’t get her letter out of her head. She decides she needs to meet Emma in person. So she goes on a mission to find her.  

The way you learn how Holly, Emma, and Jack are connected to one another makes this a must read. 

This is beautifully written and really makes you think about serendipity and fate. 

I would look into the trigger warnings before diving in. 

Final Score: 5/5
