Words Apart: A Novel

Perfect for fans of The Time Traveler’s Wife and Jojo Moyes, Words Apart is a beautiful and empowering drama about love and the life-changing gift of writing your own story.

Two months ago, Sheera Leitner’s greatest fear was that she would never be able to find a functioning relationship. As a single mom at forty, her career in the TV industry was her main source of stability in the world, even if it left her a little worse for wear. Two months ago, she was just a normal person, audaciously managing the rat race that is her life.

But two months ago, she met Michael.

As captivating as he is mysterious, Michael makes Sheera a tempting proposition – a chance to learn more about herself than she could ever imagine. Though hesitant at first, his sharp wit and surprisingly sensitive soul draw Sheera into a world of possibilities, entrancing and terrifying, which she journals in a private online inbox they agree to share. Letter by letter, word by word, Sheera narrates their transformative journey together. She enters a world where ordinary choices have extraordinary meaning, where past secrets become hidden strengths, and desires can manifest in the most unexpected ways. But as her old world finally clashes with her new life with Michael, Sheera is forced to confront everything she thought she knew – about herself, about Michael, and the power of words.
