A grumpy marshal and a sunshiny undertaker who hate each other find themselves as unlikely anonymous pen pals... and discover that they just might not know so much about the other than they thought and that there just might be more there. Hart is a marshal in charge of patrolling the lands of Tanria for strange creatures. He is also a demigod... and ever since his only father figure died, he’s been distant, filled with guilt, and just an all around grumpy person closed off. Mercy is an undertaker, she loves her job because she gets to meet new people and help people move on. She’s positive and sweet, except when it comes to Hart, both of them have an instant dislike for each other when they first met and four years later the dislike is still strong. For the life of her she can’t figure out why he dislikes her. Mercy is single handedly taking care of her family business Birdsall & Son Undertakers as well as taking care of her father and trying to keep their business afloat. Hart has had a habit of writing letters to a nameless person just to get his feelings and emotions out.. and when one of those letters ends up in Mercy’s hands she think she’s made a new friend. Soon Mercy and Hart find themselves befriending one another sending each other letters without truly knowing who the other person at the end of the letter is. When more souls and dangers come into town as well the looming truth of who the person is at the other end of the letter feelings will explode, secrets will come out, and Hart and Mercy will have to re-evaluate everything they thought they knew about the other. Filled with romance, magic, and so much more this was a fantastic read. The letters between Mercy and Hart were absolutely sweet and so heart warming, their romance was so cute. I had a blast reading this book!
