Synopsis

True love may mean certain death in a ghostly affair of risk and passion from New York Times bestselling duo Christina Lauren, authors of The Unhoneymooners and Love and Other Words.

When Lucy walks out of a frozen forest, wearing only a silk dress and sandals, she isn’t sure how she got there. But when she sees Colin, she knows for sure that she’s here for him.

Colin has never been captivated by a girl the way he is by Lucy. With each passing day their lives intertwine, and even as Lucy begins to remember more of her life—and her death—neither of them are willing to give up what they have, no matter how impossible it is. And when Colin finds a way to physically be with Lucy, taking himself to the brink of death where his reality and Lucy’s overlap, the joy of being together for those brief stolen moments drowns out everything in the outside world. But some lines weren’t meant to be crossed in this “beautiful, haunting read” (Tahereh Mafi, New York Times bestselling author).

About Christina Lauren

Christina Lauren is the combined pen name of long-time writing partners/besties Christina Hobbs and Lauren Billings. The coauthor duo writes both Young Adult and Adult Fiction, and together has produced thirteen New York Times bestselling novels. They are published in over 28 languages, have received starred reviews from Kirkus, been selected as one of NPR’s Top 100 Swoon-Worthy Romances, and won both the Seal of Excellence award and Book of the Year from RT Magazine.

Lauren Billings has a Ph.D. in neuroscience and before she made writing her full-time job, would spend her days doing nerdy research-type things wearing a lab coat and goggles.

Christina Hobbs used to spend her days in a junior high counseling office surrounded by teenagers. These days you’ll probably find her on tumblr.

Both are married with children and always joke that Christina steals Laurens shoes.

Goodreads review by Anna

I have been a fan of Christina Lauren since "Beautiful Bastard" and while I am head over heels in love with that series, "Sumblime" has taken my love for their writing to an entirely new place. Every single line in this book reads like poetry, poetry that I can't help but read and re-read, highlight......more

This YA Paranormal Romance by Christina Lauren was definitely a different type of book for these authors. I am a huge fan of their books so I went in hoping I would enjoy it even if it was different from what I usually read by them. Initially, it took me back to the days when I read books like Twili......more

4~ 4.5 Stars “I’ve lost everyone I loved. Instead, I got you. The universe might have taken the others away, but it sent you back.” I just loved the writing style and delivery of this story. It’s very different from other books that I have read by these authors but I must say this one was complete......more

Goodreads review by Kassidy

I really liked this book in the beginning, but as it went on, it went downhill. At first I was captivated by Lucy's story. I wanted to know what happened to her and why she came back after death. Her connection to Colin intrigued me and their relationship excited me. However, at about the halfway po......more

Goodreads review by Lucia

Sublime is bizarre but fascinating story about troubled sensitive boy and strange lost girl who is not really a girl. Colin and Lucy understand each other perfectly, but what will this special connection cost them? Are you intrigued? I definitely was. Poetic writing, dual POV, intense characters. Sub......more
