This is the Large Print edition of Send Down the Rain.
The Notebook meets Forrest Gump as New York Times bestselling author Charles Martin answers the questions of what it means--and what level of sacrifice it takes--to truly love someone.
Allie is still recovering from the loss of her family's beloved waterfront restaurant on Florida's Gulf Coast when she loses her second husband to a terrifying highway accident. Devastated and losing hope, she shudders to contemplate the future--until a cherished person from her past returns.
Joseph has been adrift for many years, wounded in both body and spirit and unable to come to terms with the trauma of his Vietnam War experiences. Just as he resolves to abandon his search for peace and live alone in a remote cabin in the Carolina mountains, he discovers a mother and her two small children lost in the forest. A man of character and strength, he instinctively steps in to help them get back to their home in Florida. There he will return to his own hometown--and witness the accident that launches a bittersweet reunion with his childhood sweetheart, Allie.
When Joseph offers to help Allie rebuild her restaurant, it seems the flame may reignite--until a forty-five-year-old secret begins to emerge, threatening to destroy all hope for their second chance at love.
Send Down the Rain will take you on a journey that spans the sweltering migrant worker routes of south Florida, muddy battlefields of Vietnam, thickets of northwest North Carolina, and the idyllic shores of America's most beautiful beach (Cape San Blas). At the story's center lies the question: What does it mean--and what level of sacrifice does it take--to truly love someone?
With rich storytelling, an exploration of family dynamics, the revelation of long-held secrets, and an authentic portrayal of PTSD, Send Down the Rain continues to touch the hearts of readers.
Charles Martin understands the power of story and he uses it to alter the souls and lives of both his characters and his readers. --Patti Callahan Henry, New York Times bestselling author
