Remain A supernatural love story

Nicholas Sparks

Large print - 2025

"When New York architect Tate Donovan arrives in Cape Cod to design his best friend's summer home, he is hoping to make a fresh start. Recently discharged from an upscale psychiatric facility where he was treated for acute depression, he is still wrestling with the pain of losing his beloved sister. Sylvia's deathbed revelation--that she can see spirits who are still tethered to the living world, a gift that runs in their family--sits uneasily with Tate, who struggles to believe in more than what reason can explain. But when he takes up residence at a historic bed-and-breakfast on the Cape, he encounters a beautiful young woman named Wren who will challenge every assumption he has about his logical and controlled world. Tate ...and Wren find themselves forging an immediate connection, one that neither has ever experienced before. But Tate gradually discovers that below the surface of Wren's idyllic small-town life, hatred, jealousy, and greed are festering, threatening their fragile relationship just as it begins to blossom. Tate realizes that in order to free Wren from an increasingly desperate fate, he will need to unearth the truth about her past before time runs out ... a quest that will make him doubt whether we can ever believe the stories we tell about ourselves, and the laws that govern our existence. Love--while transformative--can sometimes be frightening."--Provided by publisher.

Review by Publisher's Weekly Review

Bestseller Sparks (The Notebook) and filmmaker Shyamalan (The Sixth Sense) combine their talents to create a paranormal love story that makes suspension of disbelief easy through thoughtful characterization. Architect Tate Donovan entered a "paralyzing" depression following the death of his sister and closest confidante, Sylvia, leading to a four-month stay in a psychiatric hospital at the urging of his best friend, Oscar. Now readjusting to day-to-day life, Tate takes a room in a Cape Cod estate while helping Oscar to design and build a vacation home nearby. That banal assignment takes an odd turn when Tate catches sight of an attractive stranger in the house where he's staying. When Tate asks around, the property's groundskeeper remarks that his description of the woman sounds like Wren Tobin, who died in the house almost two years prior. Tate comes to believe that he's seen a ghost, which does nothing to stop him from falling for her when they meet again. He also becomes preoccupied with resolving the mystery tethering Wren to the house: the possibility that she was murdered. The mystery chugs along nicely but the romance is the stronger plot, and the authors deserve credit for making the relationship between the living and the dead moving. Fans of both authors will not be disappointed. (Oct.)
