Mayluna: A Novel

A novel about fate, regret, and moving on by the author of A Day Like This. In the 1990s, Carter Wills was the lead singer of the English alt-rock band Mayluna. His lyrics resonated with audiences, and he maintained a secret connection to a woman whose love influenced the band's music and changed all their lives. Evie Waters's adult children discover an iconic photograph in an old magazine showing a "mystery girl" with Carter—their mother. The image traces back to Evie's twenty-fifth summer, when she was a young columnist building her career. During a backstage encounter and a long-shot interview, she formed a profound connection with the rising musician. What transpired between them remained hidden from everyone, including Evie's family, until now. Separated by different worlds, Carter and Evie finally reveal their story—one marked by joy, regret, and lasting impact. It was a time when circumstances aligned for a love so significant that its influence extended far beyond them.
