Letters & Candy Lockets
Before they ever fell in love...
they were best friends.
Every summer, Maizy and Izzy spent their days exploring Long Wharf Beach on the beautiful island of New Providence, The Bahamas, and their evenings perched on the low stone wall separating their homes. Since they were six years old, the wall had been their place—a place for secrets, laughter, fruit picked fresh from the trees, and dreams about the future.
Then everything changed.
Only weeks into seventh grade, Izzy's family left for the United States following the sudden death of his grandmother.
There was no chance to say goodbye.
Only one final letter hidden beneath the rock where he always waited for Maizy.
Years pass.
Childhood gives way to adulthood.
The little girl and boy who once shared summers become two strangers carrying the same memories.
Then, during their freshman year at university, fate quietly brings them together again.
But can a friendship interrupted by time become the love story it was always meant to be?
Letters & Candy Lockets is a heartwarming coming-of-age romance about friendship, distance, first love, and discovering that some promises are never forgotten.
Sometimes...
the longest journey home begins with a single letter.
