MESSAGE IN A BOTTLE

 
                Thrown to the waves, and to fate, the bottle could have ended up anywhere. Instead, it is found just three weeks after it begins its journey. Theresa Osborne,           divorced and the mother of a twelve-year-old son, discovers  it during a seaside vacation from her job as a Boston newspaper columnist. Inside is a letter that opens           with, “My Dearest Catherine, I miss you my darling, as I always do, but today is particularly hard because the ocean  has been singing to me, and the song is that           of our life together….” For Garrett, the message is the only way he knows to express his undying love for a woman he has lost. For Theresa, wary of romance since           her husband shattered her trust, the message raises questions that intrigue her. Challenged by the mystery, and driven to find Garrett by emotions she does not fully           understand, Theresa begins a search that takes her to a sunlit coastal town and an unexpected confrontation. Brought together either by chance or something more           powerful, Theresa and Garrett’s lives come together in a tale that resonates with our deepest hopes for finding everlasting love.Shimmering with suspense and           emotional intensity, Message in a Bottle takes readers on a hunt for the truth about a man and his memories, and about both the heartbreaking fragility and           enormous strength of love. For those who cherished The Notebook and readers waiting to discover the magic of Nicholas Sparks’s storytelling, here is an achingly           lovely novel of happenstance, desire, and the choices that matter most.
