The Light We Lost

Jill Santopolo

Book 1 of The Light We Lost

A New York woman named Lucy looks back over a thirteen-year, on-and-off relationship with Gabe, a man she meets as a college senior on September 11, 2001. Told through Lucy's reflections, the novel follows how their intense connection keeps pulling them together even as careers, distance, and other relationships pull them apart. It's a literary, emotionally driven contemporary love story about fate, choice, and the cost of the paths not taken.
