A Supernatural Gift. A Mysterious Boy. A Secret That Could Change Everything.
Haven Cove, 1989 — Seventeen-year-old Josie Worthington doesn’t conform to the usual standards.

But when she starts writing an anonymous advice column for the local newspaper, strange things begin to happen—realities shift, emotions intensify. Her words seem to carry an otherworldly power.
Something—or someone—is listening.
As the lines between imagination and reality blur, Josie discovers she's caught in a mystery much bigger than herself. Since 1969, prominent writers have disappeared mysteriously in Haven Cove. A dark force is rising, and it wants her silenced. Her only ally is Blaine Cordwell, the enigmatic son of a rock legend, whose arrival in Haven Cove is no coincidence.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fun 80s Read
Reviewed in the United States on August 12, 2025
This paranormal YA, that takes place in Australia in the 80s, is so fun and beautifully written. I was wowed by all the pretty prose. I loved the main characters, the unique idea for the plot and the awesome 80s music references. It would seem that the author and I have identical taste. Any book that mentions Depeche Mode, The Cure, New Order and The Smiths gets major points from me. The initial exchanges between Josie and Blaine as they began falling in love were the best. And as someone who used to go goth dancing, that gorgeously described scene was one of my favorites in the entire book. It brought make so many magical memories.

Stepping into the pages of "Sincerely Yours..." was like taking a delightful trip to the 1980s! As someone who loves that era (and especially the music), the nostalgia factor in this book was awesome. From the alternative music references to the vintage fashion, the author perfectly captured the essence of the decade without it feeling forced or cliché.
Beyond the fantastic '80s vibe, what truly won me over was the romance between Josie and Blaine. In a world of often-complicated YA relationships, their story was a breath of fresh air – wholesome, clean, and genuinely sweet, completely devoid of any unnecessary drama or contrived misunderstandings. It was a pure and heartfelt connection that blossomed beautifully. Josie herself is an incredibly likable protagonist with so many admirable qualities; her purity and courage are inspirational.
While "Sincerely Yours..." is clearly aimed at teens and young adults, I, as an adult reader, found myself completely in love with this story. It's a testament to a truly well-crafted story when it can resonate across age groups. As C.S. Lewis famously said, "I am almost inclined to set it up as a canon that a children's story which is enjoyed only by children is a bad children's story." This book absolutely nails that sentiment, proving to be an awesome read for anyone, regardless of age. Highly recommend for a dose of '80s magic and a genuinely charming story!

Sincerely Yours… Written in the Stars and Inked in Destiny is a wonderful blend of 80s nostalgia, heartfelt romance, and meaningful life lessons. The story of Josie and Blaine feels authentic and cinematic—you can almost hear the soundtrack of Joy Division, The Cure, and Kate Bush playing as you read.
I loved how Sonia D. Hebdon captures the intensity of first love, friendship, and finding your voice, all while weaving in themes of faith, resilience, and identity.
This is clean YA fiction, perfect for teens but also deeply enjoyable for adults who grew up with the music and culture of the 80s. A moving, uplifting, and immersive read—I’m already looking forward to the next book in the Haven Cove series!.

5.0 out of 5 stars Exceptional and Enlightened

When I first received my copy of 'Sincerely Yours', I did not know what to expect. "Sincerely Yours, Written In The Stars And Inked In Destiny" is not just a book; it's an experience. From the very first page, I was completely captivated by a highly poignant and nuanced story that navigates love tropes, but provides a profound exploration of people dealing with Dissociative Identity Disorder. The author has a gift for writing prose that feels both lyrical and deeply human. The connection between the main characters is a palpable, serendipitous pull that you can feel through the pages and as the author states in their introduction, the narrative takes several influences from real life, which gives this an emotional and deeply personal rawness that resonates throughout the book. While it may not be for everyone, and there are some rather serious moments that will break your heart, this book is truly a gift.
