Love Lettering

Love Lettering by Kate Clayborn, 307 pages

Meg is an in-demand calligrapher for the wealthy women of New York, though she has the unfortunate habit of occasionally letting her feelings come out through her work. But she's never been caught. At least, not until mathematician Reid Sutherland walks into her shop asking about the literal "mistake" in the wedding program she created for him and his fiancee. The wedding never happened, and Meg is completely fine with that, as she's had a crush on Reid from the moment she met him. Against her better judgment, Meg asks Reid to accompany her on a walk through New York's neighborhoods to seek out interesting hand-lettering. While the first try goes disastrously, they soon find themselves falling in love with their walks, as well as with each other.

I'm a nerd about fonts and lettering, so this book was lovely in that respect. It also presented a great, slowly developing relationship, and some very realistic friend situations. I don't know that I'd recommend it to an avid romance reader, but for someone interested in calligraphy and New York City, it's a sweet story worth checking out.
