About this ebook
A high-octane, tautly-written dark romance with an unforgettable twist that will leave readers gasping, Pen Pal is a story of undeniable love from superstar J. T. Geissinger.
Now with an original bonus chapter, this BookTok sensation is not to be missed!
It all began with just one line. . .
The first letter arrived the day my husband was buried. It was postmarked from the state penitentiary and contained a single sentence:
I’ll wait forever if I have to.
It was signed by Dante, a man I didn’t know.
Out of simple curiosity, I wrote back to ask him what exactly he was waiting for. His reply?
You.
I told the mystery man he had the wrong girl. He said he didn’t. I said we’d never met, but he said I was wrong.
We went back and forth, exchanging letters every week that grew increasingly more intimate. Then, one day, the letters stopped. When I found out why, it was already too late.
Dante was at my doorstep.
And nothing on earth could have prepared me for what happened next.
*Trigger Warnings: Explicit language, graphic sex/power play dynamics, detailed descriptions of death and grief, miscarriage, domestic violence, mental illness

The story was extremely well-written, although the whole "You're my little bunny" and "You're my big, bad lion/wolf" thing was a bit weird and cringy. Still great, if you're into that. I'm not
