For any woman who has loved and lost and wondered what could have
been....What We Leave Behind by Rochelle B. Weinstein chronicles the life and
emotional growth of Jessica Parker as she frees herself from the past and moves
forward with her future.
At sixteen, Jessica is managing the emotional trauma
of her father’s death while surrendering to the profound pain of a failed first
love. Jonas Levy, a twenty-two-year-old medical student, has abruptly walked
out of Jessica’s life after an intense summer romance, and the wounds are still
raw. Is it possible to ever forget the boy you first gave your heart to?
Jessica eventually moves on, and in her twenties, becomes a successful music
supervisor in Los Angeles. She marries film producer, Marty Tauber, starts a family,
and appears to have it all, until things slowly begin to unravel. The marriage
struggles through a miscarriage and becomes harder and harder to sustain.
With
an unexpected phone call from New York, a secret from Jessica’s past comes to
light. As the rippling effects of her betrayal emerge, Jessica finds herself
caught in the firestorm of long-hidden emotional trauma.
Thrust into a modern
day moral and ethical dilemma, Jessica must face the pain of her past or lose
everything she holds dear. Will she be able to reconcile old feelings in time
to salvage her marriage? An honest, tender, and poignant portrayal of love in
its many forms, this heart wrenching novel will resonate with any woman who has
questioned her past and wondered what could have been.
