The Wescott Nights

By Rebecca A. Clarkson

What if the love of your life was just one message away... but forty-eight years in the past?

At fifty, editor Nora Vance is only looking for a refuge. Widowed, exhausted from living a half-life, and running from her own ghosts, she buys an old house in an isolated coastal town in Maine. The last thing she expects to find in the dark hallway is a 1978 answering machine with a blinking red light, demanding to be heard.

On the other end of the line, there is no interference, but a voice. It is Danny, a twenty-year-old musician with a slightly crooked smile, a budding talent, and a heart full of questions. Separated by nearly half a century, but connected by an invisible thread through time, they begin leaving each other messages in the quiet of the early morning.

What begins as an inexplicable mystery quickly becomes an emotional lifeline for them both. Night after night, through whispered confessions in the dark, Nora and Danny discover they have found their soulmate in the wrong era.

But time is unforgiving, and the tape reel is inevitably running out. With every message, the end draws closer. Is it possible to hold on to a love that belongs to the past without destroying the future? Or are some connections so deep that not even time can erase them?

A captivating and deeply emotional novel about the magic of second chances, the weight of memories, and an impossible romance that will break your heart only to put it back together.
