Description: Can two people brought together by desperate circumstances help one another heal and maybe even begin a new life? New York Times bestselling author Charles Martin's Send Down the Rain 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?
