If this is the case then i recommend this book to you! This story has the ability to shake even the most practical people on the planet which is just amazing...


THE PLOT
Theresa Osborne is a divorcee with a twelve year old son who has lost her belief in love when her husband broke both her heart and trust. She finds something that changes her and her life forever! She finds a message in a bottle during her vacation from her job, with the words "My Dearest Catherine, I miss you my darling, as I always do, but today is particularly hard because the ocean has been singing to me, and the song is that of our life together."For Garrett these words describe his everlasting love for his departed wife but for Theresa this message pulls her towards the person who wrote it, due to those emotions that even she cannot understand. She is so intrigued by this person that she finds herself searching for him in a sunlit coastal town. Before she could find him coincidence or something more powerful brings them face to face and they fall in love which is so deep but will they find their happiness?
