I have read just about every book that Kristin Hannah has out in print. She is one of my favorite authors. I love her writing style and her books always seem to grab me in the first page or two, making it hard to put the book down. This book was different for me. The story did not grab me in the first pages, nor did it in the first several chapters. I know most readers would not continue reading if this happened, but being that I love this author, I kept at it. I felt that she could not have changed her style of writing so much, since this book was written, as to lose a fan with one book. I saw promise about one quarter of the way through the book and before I hit halfway I was hooked.

Waiting For The Moon weaves a story of heartbreak in all kinds of relationships from family to lover. It shows how one act of forgiveness can change a person and that starting over can change many lives. You will run through a gamut of emotion from mourning a death to the rebirth of a once thought dead soul.

I realize that some will not stick with this book long enough to get the reward and I do fully understand. If you do stick with it I do believe you will find the raw emotion and magic that Kristin Hannah does so well. ( )

"Kristin Hannah is a superb storyteller."
--Kathe Robin
Romantic Times
Award-winning author Kristin Hannah creates her most spellbinding and compelling novel yet...a passionate tale of obsession, redemption, and the magic of true love.
WAITING FOR THE MOON
She doesn't remember who she is or how she came to the mansion on the isolated Maine coast. Lost in a strange world filled with even stranger faces, Selena finds comfort in a man whose eyes reflect her own aloneness.
He is Ian Carrick, a brilliant physician turned recluse, hiding from life in the anonymity of this small sanctuary, haunted by a telepathic gift that has destroyed his desire to heal.
Selena comes to him, the only person he's ever met who is immune to his psychic powers. A mesmerizing innocent, she turns his life upside down, bringing light into the darkness and laughter into the silence. For her, he begins to believe in life again, to believe in himself. And then a mysterious figure from the past arrives, threatening to destroy their glorious love and the fantasy world they have created together....
