Before You Left In The Rain

Before You Left in the RainThere's a bridge made of glass. A river made of stars. A girl who's been waiting on the other side of Isaac's dreams since he was four years old, teaching him how to survive a childhood that never quite fit. Then he turns eighteen, and she's gone. He convinces himself she never existed at all. Nineteen years later, he walks into a bookshop to get out of the rain and finds her standing behind the counter, very much awake, very much real, and with absolutely no memory of ever meeting him.
Her name is Nora. What happens next will take Isaac twenty more years to fully understand: a marriage, a daughter, a diagnosis nobody saw coming, and a truth about love that has nothing to do with logic and everything to do with the version of yourself that's been waiting to be found. Before You Left in the Rain asks a question most love stories don't dare touch: what if the person you're meant for chooses you twice - once in a dream, and once in a life you almost didn't believe you deserved? Part ghost story, part fairy tale, part unbearably tender portrait of a marriage under a countdown clock, this is a novel for anyone who has ever woken up from a dream and missed someone they've never met.
Love doesn't disappear. It just moves into smaller rooms.
