Hello Bookworms!
I have been journaling pretty much my entire life. Sadly, I do not have my journals from my earlier years due to a tragedy that made me lose a lot of my personal items, but I do have all of my journals from the past few decades, which has become some of my most cherished possessions. One thing that's always been a fear is the thought of those private thoughts landing in the wrong hands, which is truly terrifying to me and is a big plot point in the novel I am featuring today.
Let me know in the comments if you keep a personal journal and, if so, how long have you been writing. I have a digital journal that I write in on a fairly consistent basis and a physical journal that I will occasionally write in when I am craving that pen-to-paper feel. Sometimes a girl just needs to write...

Lost words, found love - a misplaced journal may spark a happily-ever-after in this You’ve Got Mail-style Rom-Com
Macie Grammerly’s mother delivers an ultimatum—come home and work for the family business, or forfeit further financial support. Booted from her privileged jet-set life, Macie leaves sun-soaked Hawaii for Idaho. On her unglamorous bus ride to and from work, she pours her heart into her journal, writing about her dreams and the love she longs for.
Focused on his career, Ryan Tiggs’s five-year plan includes climbing to the top of a family-owned business. Then he can buy a car and move out of the garage apartment at his sister’s home. When he’s assigned the boss’s spoiled daughter as his intern, and they’re tasked with saving the floundering company, Ryan wonders if his days are numbered.
Everything changes when he finds a journal left on the bus. The anonymous writer’s vulnerability captivates him and sparks a secret email exchange that soon feels more real than anything else in his life.
As Macie and Ryan continue to work together, an undeniable attraction grows. Yet things are complicated by their individual online correspondence. When the truth is revealed, will they fight for the love they never saw coming or walk away from the one person who has always been there for them?
