Description
Maybe Today
Book Summary
A story of broken souls finding each other in the most unexpected of places. Sarah has lost her essence, her dreams, and her color. Nick has learned to live with his own demons, walking on the edge of the abyss. When their paths cross in a remote little house in Siskiyou, both will discover that, sometimes, the most incompatible pieces are the ones that fit together best. "Maybe Today" is an adult contemporary romance novel that explores the possibility of healing past wounds and the struggle not to let pain define the future.
What is it about?
Sarah is broken. She has forgotten her palette of colors, the tingling in her fingertips, and even her own dreams. There is no trace left of the girl she once was. Nick is just as broken as she is, with the only difference being that he has learned to walk accompanied by the shadow of his demons, and perhaps he has become one himself. Both will begin to find themselves and discover that, in reality, they had always been looking for each other. It is possible that there are no two people more incompatible who fit together better. The story takes place between a little house in Siskiyou, a beach cabin, and the ocean—always the ocean. A girl who doesn't know how to walk through hell and a boy who knows how to live in it wonder if the past can stop dictating the future and if they will be able to heal all those wounds that never stop bleeding. The novel explores what happens when you think the only thing left for you is to live in pain.
