The Light We Lost

A love story for the 21st century.

A moving novel about the enduring power of first love with an unforgettable ending.

He was the first man who moved her, who inspired her, who truly understood her. Was he destined to be the last?

Lucy and Gabe met during their senior year of college on a day that would change them forever. At that moment, they decided they needed to find meaning in their lives, make the most of it, leave their mark. Young and in love, they seemed to have the world at their feet. They didn't expect that their own dreams would separate them. But Gabe accepted a job as a press photographer in the Middle East, and Lucy decided to continue her career in New York.

Thus began thirteen years of longing, desires, jealousy, betrayals, and, above all, love. Separated by continents, but never far from the heart. Was it truly their destiny to finish their journey together?

I hope that one day you find a love like this,
a consuming love, a powerful love,
that makes you feel a little crazy...
But also invincible and infinite.
