About this ebook
Caleb Mercer notices Talia the moment she walks into the grocery store where he works. To her, he is the young bagger who helps customers and disappears into the background of an ordinary day. To Caleb, their meeting feels like destiny. One glance becomes a memory he cannot stop replaying. One friendly exchange becomes proof of a connection. Soon he is writing letters to Talia, intimate confessions addressed to a woman he is certain understands him in ways no one else ever has. The problem is that Talia has a life of her own, and Caleb's version of that life bears little resemblance to reality. As his letters grow more personal, so does his conviction that obstacles are the only thing keeping them apart. Friends, family and the people closest to Talia begin to look less like human beings and more like threats to the future Caleb has already imagined. Every rejection can be reinterpreted. Every coincidence can become a sign. Every boundary can be explained away. Told from inside a mind that is both yearning and increasingly dangerous, Letters to a Stranger follows obsession as it transforms ordinary moments into evidence for a private fantasy. Caleb believes he is writing the beginning of a love story. The people around him are living through something very different. By the time the truth can no longer be reshaped to fit his dream, his letters have become a record of how far he is willing to go. The most frightening question is no longer whether Talia will answer him. It is what Caleb will do when he finally understands that she never promised him anything at all.
