Synopsis

Berkley "Berk" Vaughn has a secret pen pal — an anonymous woman who sends him deliciously naughty letters, then goes silent. Determined to find her, he enlists his sweet next-door neighbor Julia "Jules" Kelland to help track her down, never suspecting Jules is the very woman he's searching for. Jules never meant her wine-fueled confession to go further than one letter, and now the fear of rejection keeps her from telling Berk the truth — even as their real-life friendship deepens into something neither expected. The third book in Maya Hughes's Fulton U series, readable as a standalone.
