When Lincoln gets a job as an “internet security officer” for a local newspaper, he doesn’t realize this means spending his nights in an office, reading other people’s email. Beth and Jennifer are friends who send constant personal emails to each other, not realizing it is someone’s job to moniter them. Lincoln is supposed to send them a warning for misuse of company email, but their emails are funny and sweet and he starts to enjoy reading them. Soon he realizes he is falling in love with Beth through her writing, but now he has a problem; if he finds out who she is and introduces himself, how is he going to explain that he’s been reading her personal emails for months?

This book was really cute. The ending is satisfying without being too cliché, and all the characters are loveable. I really enjoyed that it wasn’t just a romance, but had some really strong friendships as well. I would recommend this book for anyone who wants a light, fun read.
