Love, Ellie
A tender, lyrical story about love, fear, missed chances, and the letter that changes everything.
What if a letter from the past held the answer to your future?
When Maisie moves into a charming Manhattan apartment with her successful, picture-perfect fiancé, she believes she's entering the next chapter of a carefully curated life. The high ceilings, exposed brick, and vintage charm feel like something out of a dream - or an Instagram post. But behind the polished surfaces, Maisie begins to question the relationship she's built, and the version of herself she's had to become to keep it going.
Then, behind a loose brick in the hallway wall, she discovers a letter.
Written two decades earlier by a woman named Ellie, the letter is raw, heartfelt, and unfinished - a confession of a love so deep it terrified her. As Maisie reads Ellie's words of regret and longing, she's drawn into the emotional world of a stranger who once lived in the same space. But Ellie's story is more than just a memory. It begins to echo inside Maisie's own life, making her question everything she thought she knew about love, safety, and the lies we tell ourselves to survive.
Told in dual timelines, Love, Ellie weaves together the stories of two women separated by time but connected by a hidden letter, a shared fear of vulnerability, and the ache of unspoken truths. In 2005, Ellie is forty-nine, newly single after the slow unraveling of a twelve-year relationship. When she meets Jamie - an artist with a quiet steadiness and a kind heart - she finds herself drawn into a love unlike anything she's known. But old wounds run deep, and Ellie must face the choice between holding on and running again.
In 2025, Maisie stands at her own crossroads. Torn between the life she built and the truth she can no longer ignore, she turns to the past for guidance. Ellie's letter becomes a mirror - one that reflects not just what's been lost, but what's still possible.
This emotionally rich debut novel explores themes of:
emotional intimacy and vulnerability
second chances and starting over
the fear of being truly seen
quiet love vs. performative love
the emotional aftermath of toxic relationships
how the past can shape - or save - the present
Perfect for fans of Rebecca Serle, Taylor Jenkins Reid, or Ann Napolitano, Love, Ellie is a slow-burn romance layered with introspection, lyrical prose, and the quiet ache of love both found and lost. If you've ever left something beautiful because you were too scared to stay - or found yourself in the words of someone else's story - this book is for you.
Sometimes, the letter you were never meant to read is the one that changes everything.
