“No one writes about love like Jill Santopolo.”—#1 New York Times bestselling author Carley Fortune

The long-awaited follow-up to the Reese’s Book Club pick and New York Times bestselling global phenomenon The Light We Lost: a thrilling love story about the roles fate and choice play in shaping a life.

It’s been ten years. In case you’re out there somewhere. In case you’re listening, I’m here. And I have so much to tell you.

It’s been nearly ten years since Gabe’s been gone when Lucy finds a tiny piece of paper in a box of his old photos. An address in Rome. Why did Gabe keep it, and what was he doing in Italy? Lucy buys a last-minute plane ticket. Impulsive, but Gabe always brought that out in her.

Lucy’s journey to uncover Gabe’s secret leads her to Dr. Dax Armstrong, a New Yorker in Italy working with an NGO. His broad shoulders and sad, intense eyes draw Lucy in. His touch reaches her in a forgotten place—one that no one has neared since Gabe.

But her old life awaits, along with an earth-shattering decision—whether she and Darren should tell their son Samuel the truth about his father. How can Lucy move forward while she’s rooted in the past? Fate broke her heart once. Can finding new love set her free?

Loved that there was follow up to light we lost

Perfect sequel

As I am attending a book signing tomorrow night, where Jill Santopolo was ll be signing her book, it was uppermost in my mind to experience The Love We Found. Luckily the Audible version, beautifully narrated by the author, is available.

If you haven’t read The Light We Lost please do yourself a favor and read it. It’s an emotional read, which lays the groundwork for this sequel.

While going through the boxes of Gabes photos, Lucy finds a scrap of paper with an address in Rome. Curious about who Gabe might know Lucy flies to Rome and while researching his photographs meets Dax.

The Light We Lost is an emotionally charged love story. This perfect sequel also shows us love but with the consequences of keeping secrets.

Binge worthy!

What did I do this weekend? Binged this book! I love that the author reads her own book. This felt like returning to old friends and learning more about them. Tell me there’s another installment in our future ….

A good conclusion to the first

I enjoyed the book. It did seem a lot more spicy than the first one.

So many tears

I can’t say how many times I cried listening to this. It was beautiful and hopeful despite the tragedy of the first book. I love the narration by the author herself. I love the emotional maturity of the characters. I love the sexual descriptions. Just the right amount for of spice for this type of more realistic love. Truly such a wonderful book. Obviously listen or read the first book before this. Bring tissues though.
