The Love Letter by Rachel Hauck

The Love Letter by Rachel Hauck

The daughter of Hollywood royalty, Chloe is determined to make her mark—and find romance. Screenwriter Jesse believes she's perfect to play the role of Esther, the woman whom his Revolutionary War grandfather loved. Will a love letter from the past have change their future? Romance has never been actress Chloe Daschle’s forte—in life or on screen. But everyone knows who to call for a convincing death scene . . . and it might be killing her career. When Chloe is given a peek at the script for an epic love story, she decides to request an audition for the lead female role of Esther. The compelling tale, inspired by scriptwriter Jesse Gates’s family lore and a one-page letter from his colonial ancestor, just might break her out of this career-crippling rut. Jesse would rather write about romance than live through it after his past relationship ended in disaster. But once on-set together, the chemistry between Jesse and his leading lady is hard to deny. Centuries earlier, in the heart of the Revolutionary War, Hamilton Lightfoot and Esther Longfellow fight for love. Esther’s Loyalist father opposes any relationship with Hamilton, but Esther must face her beloved father’s disapproval and the dangers of war in order to convince Hamilton of their future together. Hamilton has loved Esther for years, and on the eve of battle pens the love letter she’s always wanted—something straight from the heart. Set in stunning upcountry South Carolina, The Love Letter is a beautifully crafted story of the courage it takes to face down fear and chase after love, even in the darkest of times. Sweet, contemporary and historical romance with a split-time period Includes discussion questions for book clubs Also by New York Times bestselling author Rachel Hauck: The Wedding Dress, The Royal Wedding Collection, and The Fifth Avenue Story Society
