What do you do when you find a stranger in your closet, particularly when she's surprised that you can even see her -- and she can disappear and reappear at whim? What if she then tells you that her body is actually in a coma on the other side of town? Should you have her see a psychiatrist or should you consult one yourself? Or do you take a chance and believe in her, and allow yourself to be swept up in an extraordinary adventure?
This is the beginning of the dilemma Arthur, a young San Francisco architect, is facing when he discovers Lauren in his apartment. Arthur is the only man who can share Lauren's secret, the only one who can see her, hear her, and talk to her when no one else so much as senses her presence. So when doctors prepare to end Lauren's physical care -- which would destroy the magical bond she and Arthur cherish -- he must find a way to save her. For, after all, it is only her love that can save him.
A heartwarming love story that's impossible to forget, an adventure that is by turns breathtaking and hilarious, If Only It Were True is a captivating tale that evokes the essence of romance and our boundless capacity to believe.

About the Author:

From AudioFile:
An unforgettable, heart-warming love story, read with clarity and warmth, touches the heart and fascinates the listener from beginning to end. The elements of mystery and romance are developed, detail by captivating detail, as Michael McGlone tells the story of Lauren, a medical resident in a deep coma. Lauren's spirit resides as a houseguest in her former home with the new purchaser, Arthur, the only one who can see and talk to her. The story is paced well, except in the middle where too much childhood detail is added. Not just a romance, but also a good story, this is well worth taking from the shelf.
