Meg Mackworth’s hand-lettering skill has made her famous as the Planner of Park Slope, designing beautiful custom journals for New York City’s elite. She has another skill too: reading signs that other people miss. Like the time she sat across from Reid Sutherland and his gorgeous fiancée and knew their upcoming marriage was doomed to fail. Weaving a secret word into their wedding program was a little unprofessional, but she was sure no one else would spot it. She hadn’t counted on sharp-eyed, pattern-obsessed Reid . . .

A year later, Reid has tracked Meg down to find out—before he leaves New York for good—how she knew that his meticulously planned future was about to implode. But with a looming deadline, a fractured friendship, and a bad case of creative block, Meg doesn’t have time for Reid’s questions—unless he can help her find her missing inspiration. As they gradually open up to each other about their lives, work, and regrets, both try to ignore the fact that their unlikely connection is growing deeper. But the signs are there—irresistible, indisputable, urging Meg to heed the messages Reid is sending her before it’s too late . . .

Title:  Love Lettering

My Rating:  4.5 stars

I fell in love with Love Lettering.  It’s just that simple.  Told from Meg’s point of view it’s a tale of two unique, a bit quirky people who discover who they really are as they wander the streets of New York City reading signs, checking numbers, seeing the city in a brand new light.  And perhaps discovering that they fit each other as well.

The cover description tells you enough to draw you in – and I’m not about to spoil your enjoyment of this one in any way.  I liked the main characters, even though Reid is shown to us through Meg’s viewpoint that didn’t stop him from becoming a full, complete person in his own right as her observations show not only Meg but us, who Reid truly is.  The full circle of emotions gets involved here as each learns lessons from walking the streets of the city, seeing things they may have never noticed before and added more pieces to their individual puzzles on life.

I enjoyed myself immensely with Love Lettering and would not hesitate to recommend it to any reader who simply loves a good story, one that will capture your attention and have you thinking long after the final page is closed.

*I received an e-ARC of this novel from the publisher via NetGalley. That does not change what I think of this story.  It is my choice to leave a review giving my personal opinion about this book.*
