Publisher's summary

Some days, all you need is a message from a stranger.

Ruby Santos knew exactly what she was getting herself into when she signed up to write a soldier overseas. The guidelines were simple: one letter or email a week for the length of his or her deployment. Care packages were optional.

Been there, done that. She thought she knew what to expect.

What she didn't count on was falling in love with the guy.

Laugh, Cry Enjoy!!

Loved this book when I read it and loved it even more listening to it. Both Callie and Teddy were awesome as narrators. Brought the story even more to life. Thanks Mariana for this beautiful gift. Couldn’t stop listening, laughed, cried and cheered.

On fav. List.

This author is now on my fav list. I listen to at least 3 books before deciding who to read any book that comes out by author. Just got all books that I could get. Can't wait to get lost in them.

My new favorite Author!

This is my second book by Zapata in a week. I am enthralled by her work because she really develops the characters.

very sweet

This story was interesting. I love the sweetness and a new concept of a lice story.
My BIGGEST beef is Audible only giving Teddy Hamilton a very small narrator roll!
Callie did a good job but she almost narrated the whole book..
NOT ENOUGH STEAMY / HOT & SEXY LOVE MAKING!! 👀
Mariana Zapata needed to put a little more excitement in the beginning & middle.
The banter between them started to get boring.

Everything is going to be all right

Dear Aaron is another Zapata winning read with slow-burn passion, complex characters, and a heartwarming romance! Ruby Santos was thrilled to have made a new friend through an “adopt a military” penpal program. Aaron, a military man, and Ruby begin emailing and a friendship is formed. When feelings begin to bloom between the two, both are anxious to meet. When they finally come together, there is nothing or no one that could tear them apart.

Dear Aaron is a witty read full of fun and everything I have grown to love about Mariana Zapata. Although Ruby struggles with severe insecurities, I found her quirkiness grew on me as the plot unfolded. I adored Aaron and the way in which their friendship transformed into so much more was utter perfection!

Overall, Dear Aaron is an absolute must-read for Zapata fans or slow burn fans! Zapata never fails to amaze me with her masterfully crafted stories. I adore her writing and I cannot wait for more Zapata goodness to come!

Sweet Story

At first I really didn't like the book. It was too choppy. But, I'm glad I stuck with it. There is really only one sex scene. So if that is what you are looking for this book is not for you. It is about two people getting to know each other and falling in love. It is really an easy read sweet story!

Sucker for military men

I enjoyed this book maybe bias because it had a military guy in it but it was good listen! Started off weird to me how it’s emails back and forth mostly but definitely got more intrigued the more it went on.

4 stars

I originally stayed away from this book because I assumed it was a war story type of book. Instead it is about a guy named Aaron who is in the Army that develops a relationship with his pen pal Ruby. It is a cute, romantic feel good story that most people will enjoy.This was my first Mariana Zapata book and I will be reading/listening to more.
