Found and Lost: The Jake and Cait Story
In 1985, they met by chance.
As a young guitarist and violinist, Jake and Cait created something transcendent each time they locked eyes and finished each other’s musical phrases… until the music stopped.
Forty years later, the song that started it all brings them back together. But time changes everything.
Faith will test them. Regret will haunt them. But the music… might just save them.
Sometimes, the only way forward… is to play the song from the start.
“A beautifully written, poignant love letter to music, life, and second chances that seamlessly blends youth’s raw, impulsive dreams with the bittersweet wisdom of middle age.”
– Rachel Thompson, Award-Winning author of Broken Pieces, Broken Places, and Broken People.
“Howard Lovy successfully choreographs a story that spans decades. The realistic music industry details add to the believability of this epic love story.”
– Chris Florio, Director, Passion Records
