"An affecting tale about finding happiness amid grief and guilt." -Booklist
Twelve years ago, newlywed Kate Waithman had it all-until the day her husband, Patrick, the love of her life, was killed in a car accident.
More than a decade later, Kate has found happiness as a music therapist and has finally fallen in love again with a kind man named Dan. Life should be perfect, except that on the night she and Dan get engaged, Kate begins having jarringly realistic dreams in which Patrick is still alive-and he and Kate have a daughter. The dreams feel so vivid, so right, that Kate has to wonder: Is Patrick trying to tell her something?
Attempting to navigate between dreams and reality, Kate must uncover her husband's hidden message. Her quest leads her to a sign language class and into the New York City foster system, where she finds rewards greater than she could have imagined-and learns that even in loss, love never really leaves, but waits to guide us exactly where we need to be.
