A woman must woo her lover's soul back into his body to wake him from a coma—or risk losing him forever—in this moving novel from the author of The Hundred Loves of Juliet.
Claire Walker has always had her life in perfect order, including her high-powered job at one of Manhattan’s top corporate law firms. Yet the one thing she cannot seem to find is that perfect love to complete it. Until fate drops Matías de León into her life. Matías is a Spanish artist who is everything that Claire is not: free-spirited and creative, chaos to her order. She falls for him, hard—and he for her.
A year later, however, Claire begins to find herself questioning everything about this relationship. How can they possibly work long-term when they’re so different? Might it be best to end it, before they are both in too deep?
Then tragedy strikes while Matías is visiting family in Spain, leaving him gravely wounded in a Madrid hospital. And when Claire drops everything to race to his side, she finds herself the only one who can see and talk to Matías’s soul, detached from his comatose body. But that soul has no memories of his year in New York, of her, or of their relationship. Claire soon realizes that, in order to lure Matías back to his body, she will have to convince him to fall in love with her all over again. But can lightning strike twice? Can the same magic that once brought them together do so again?
