Sweet Nothing

by Jamie McGuire

First published 2015

A single glance at a stoplight changes everything. She spots him in the next lane and knows instantly this is the man she will marry, the father of her future children. Their love hits like a collision rather than a gentle fall. What begins in a moment of recognition becomes a life together, passionate and complete. But their story contains another instant that will shatter everything they built. The late nights arrive first, then the excuses, finally the lies. What seemed unbreakable proves fragile. Now he sits beside her hospital bed day after day, watching his imagined future dissolve before it was ever truly his. He waits for the impossible, for any sign she might return to him, hoping that even sinners deserve miracles. The woman who became his whole world slips away while he can only watch and hope for one more glimpse of recognition in her eyes.
