'You're going to fall in love, Tate. And when you do, it's going to
change your life forever...'
When New York architect Tate Donovan arrives in Cape Cod to
design his best friend's summer home, he is hoping to make a fresh start.
Recently discharged from an upscale psychiatric facility where he was treated
for acute depression, he is still wrestling with the pain of losing his beloved
sister.
Sylvia's deathbed revelation - that she can see spirits who
are still tethered to the living world, a gift that runs in their family - sits
uneasily with Tate, who struggles to believe in more than what reason can
explain. But when he takes up residence at a historic bed-and-breakfast on the
Cape, he encounters a beautiful young woman named Wren who will challenge every
assumption he has about his logical and controlled world.
Tate and Wren find themselves forging an immediate
connection, one that neither has ever experienced before. But Tate gradually
discovers that below the surface of Wren's idyllic small-town life, hatred,
jealousy and greed are festering, threatening their fragile relationship just
as it begins to blossom.
Tate realizes that in order to free Wren from an
increasingly desperate fate, he will need to unearth the truth about her past
before time runs out . . . a quest that will make him doubt whether we can ever
believe the stories we tell about ourselves, and the laws that govern our
existence. Love - while transformative - can sometimes be frightening.
A story about the power of transcendent emotion, Remain asks
us all: Can love set us free not only from our greatest sorrows, but even from
the boundaries of life and death?
A one-of-a-kind novel that grapples with the supernatural
mysteries of life, death, and human connection - an unprecedented collaboration
between the globally bestselling author of love stories like The
Notebook and the renowned writer and director of blockbuster
thrillers like The Sixth Sense.
