Synopsis

After the fairy tale of Happily Ever After ends in heartbreak, what then? From multi-award-winning author River Faire comes an inspiring account of second chances, healing, inexplicable magic, and following the soul's compass.River, an alternative healer and Paris-trained chef--a decidedly reluctant mystic-returns to England from America to help his ex-partner, back from the brink of death. Stepping into a London life he left behind, haunted by ghosts, he finds himself on an unanticipated journey of the heart. When the two men relocate to the English countryside, he discovers more than a charming pastoral landscape, he unexpectedly glimpses the fabric of life itself.With disarming honesty and a searching, lyrical voice, WHERE TWO WORLDS TOUCH is a transcendent narrative about navigating the intricacies of the human heart, no matter whom we love. An invitation to say yes to uncertainty and vulnerability, to trust the unknowable mystery, while seeking the place we belong and what is uniquely ours to bring. A genre-defying memoir-one part love story, one part celebration of the table, one part ode to nature, and one part soul guide woven as an indelible offering that lingers long past the final page.Winner, 2024 IBPA Benjamin Franklin AwardEditor's Pick, BookLife Reviews by Publishers WeeklyIndie Books We Love selection from LoveReading, The UK's Leading Book Recommendation Website

Goodreads review by Sonja on December 11, 2023

This was such a beautifully written and emotional memoir that I really wasn't expecting. I find that memoirs are often so personal that it's difficult to truly connect with the writer, but this was obviously and immediately different. After their relationship ended, River found himself returning to......more

Goodreads review by Amorina on December 08, 2023

This is a very well-written journey through a unique second-chance love story and a difficult time in one man’s life. And, the really interesting part is it’s a true story. Within these pages, the author opens up to us on a very vulnerable level, which requires a great level of courage and comfort wi......more
