My Review:

Another fun installment of the Only Magic in the Building series. These books are all set in the same historic building, with light magical elements. One thing I appreciate is that the "magical" element is different in each book.

Signed, Sealed, and Smitten is a sloooooow-burn romance. Phoebe and Jay meet when Phoebe moves to Serendipity Springs to turn Jay's grandfather's house into a museum. They have an instant connection, but neither one is looking for romance. 

The old love letters that appear in Phoebe's mailbox are what build her friendship with Jay. They put their historical, nerdy research brains to work trying to solve the mystery of the letters. Who is writing them, and to whom, and do they ever get together?

Overall, this was a fun, quick read.

★★★★/5

Synopsis (Goodreads):  

The last thing she needs is another off-limits work romance. He’s fine playing the friendly flirt . . . until he falls for real.

Embarrassing breakups at work cost you promotions. Phoebe learned that the hard way. So when a patron’s will names her as the director of a new museum in Serendipity Springs, she jumps at the chance to prove her professionalism.

Her new plan: focus on work. Ignore distractions. Definitely ignore men. Easy peasy.

But then the mailbox in Phoebe’s quirky apartment building starts delivering a series of old love letters written between strangers…sixty years ago.

She can’t afford the distraction, but she also can’t ignore the letters, so she enlists the help of Jay, the flirty heir to her benefactor’s fortune, to help her solve the mystery of who they belong to.

Jay is exactly the history pro she needs, but he’s also the kind of handsome charmer Phoebe always falls for, and since he’s on the museum board, she’s not about to risk her recovering reputation. Despite their sizzling chemistry, she quickly sends Jay to the friend zone.

Until the mysterious letters from the past lead them to surprising discoveries in the present, and serendipity steps in with an irresistible nudge and a memorable, magical kiss.
