He was the first person to inspire her, to move her, to truly understand her. Was he meant to be the last?
Lucy is faced with a life-altering choice. But before she can make her decision, she must start her story--their story--at the very beginning.
Lucy and Gabe meet as seniors at Columbia University on a day that changes both of their lives forever. Together, they decide they want their lives to mean something, to matter. When they meet again a year later, it seems fated--perhaps they'll find life's meaning in each other. But then Gabe becomes a photojournalist assigned to the Middle East and Lucy pursues a career in New York. What follows is a thirteen-year journey of dreams, desires, jealousies, betrayals, and, ultimately, of love. Was it fate that brought them together? Is it choice that has kept them away? Their journey takes Lucy and Gabe continents apart, but never out of each other's hearts.
This devastatingly romantic debut novel about the enduring power of first love, with a shocking, unforgettable ending, isΒ Love Story for a new generation.
"It'sΒ the epic love story of 2017."--Redbook

I wish I had purchased the Kindle version of "The Light We Lost", because the Audible recorded by the author is an amateur, annoyingly read version. The book is S-L-O-W, so I came back to Amazon to see why I would have purchased this. It strikes me as a teen novel. So far, no depth and no insights.
My favorite read of all-time.
WOW
This was a well written, light reading book.
