Waiting for the Moon

by Kristin Hannah

An amnesiac woman and a reclusive doctor find love where memory, secrets and a strange psychic gift collide.

About Waiting for the Moon

Selena wakes with no memory of who she is or how she arrived at an isolated mansion on the Maine coast. She finds an unlikely refuge with Ian Carrick, a brilliant physician who has withdrawn from the world because of a telepathic gift that made healing unbearable. Selena is uniquely immune to his power, drawing them together—until someone from her forgotten past threatens the life they have begun to build.
