In the spirit of The Notebook and The Time Travelerâs Wife comes Robert Barclayâs haunting and romantic novel of passion, destiny, loss and an eternal love that will bring two people together across time.
His name was Garrett Richmond and he had always wanted to live by the ocean. So when the opportunity to buyâand renovateâthe old home known as Seaside arrived, he leapt at the chance. Never mind that his friends and family thought he was crazy, he knew he could return this lonely mansion, worn by time, wind, and neglect, to its former beauty. But Seaside was more than just a project; it was spot that had called to him his entire life.
And then one night he saw her . . .
Her name is Constance Elizabeth Canfield and she tells him Seaside has been her home for over 150 years. But Constance is no ghost; rather, she claims that she has been somehow magically trapped between this life and the next. At first, Garrett canât believe her crazy storyâthe woman had to be lying! And yet, there was something about Constance that was from another time . . .
Soon this mysterious woman and flesh and blood man share a closeness they cannot deny. But just as their love begins to bloom, Constanceâs presence starts mysteriously fading away, soon to be gone forever. Is their love doomedâor is it strong enough to transcend time, and even death itself?
