The rain pours down, plastering his hair to his head and his shirt to his body. He takes my hand and puts it over his heart.
“See? Still beating.”
Pounding is more like it…
Ten years ago, Robin found true love with Jed. Though he tried pushing her away, insisting that “permanent doesn’t exist,” she gave him her whole heart. So, after Jed died, of course her whole heart broke into millions of tiny pieces.
Fast forward a decade. Robin meets sweet yet irreverent Nick. He loves 80s sports flicks, Ben Folds Five, and Robin–which makes her believe in second chances. Except, months before meeting Nick, Robin had agreed to star in the play Jed wrote for her before he died.
Now, she’s part of this weird, tragic love triangle. Nick doesn’t even realize he’s competing with a memory, while Jed’s ghost lingers in her dreams, urging her to move on. But how can she, when she can’t be honest with Nick, or with herself?
Perfect for fans of Carely Fortune and Jo Jo Moyes, The Next Breath is a heartbreakingly romantic novel that asks, is it possible to hold onto love and still let go?
