Time After Time by Lisa Grunwald
A magical love story, inspired by the legend of a woman who vanished from Grand Central Terminal, sweeps readers from the 1920s to World War I and beyond.Readers who enjoyed Audrey Niffenegger's The Time Traveler's Wife will be enchanted.--Publishers Weekly I utterly loved this clever, charming, hopeful tale of true love against all odds.--Ariel Lawhon, New York Times bestselling author of I Was Anastasia On a clear December morning in 1937, at the famous gold clock in Grand Central Terminal, Joe Reynolds, a hardworking railroad man from Queens, meets a vibrant young woman who seems mysteriously out of place. Nora Lansing is a Manhattan socialite and an aspiring artist whose flapper clothing, pearl earrings, and talk of the Roaring Twenties don't seem to match the bleak mood of Depression-era New York. Captivated by Nora from her first electric touch, Joe despairs when he tries to walk her home and she disappears. Finding her again--and again--will become the focus of his love and his life. As thousands of visitors pass under the famous celestial blue ceiling each day, Joe and Nora create a life of infinite love in a finite space, taking full advantage of the Terminal City within a city. But when the construction of another landmark threatens their future, Nora and Joe are forced to test the limits of their freedom--and their love. Praise for Time After Time I'll never again set foot in Grand Central Terminal without looking over my shoulder for Nora and Joe, or marveling at the station itself--a backdrop as intriguing as the love story that unfolds beneath its star-studded ceiling.--Georgia Hunter, New York Times bestselling author of We Were the Lucky Ones In lively prose set against the fascinating history of Grand Central . . . Grunwald asks a compelling question: How long would we stay in one place for love]?--Time The spectacular Lisa Grunwald has written a classic story of fate, true love, art, and chance with truth and beauty.
