Debut Novel
And Falls the Rain
By Mario Mudano
Argent Echoes welcomes you to explore the captivating debut novel And Falls the Rain by Mario Mudano. Immerse yourself in a compelling narrative that delves into the depths of human emotions, relationships, and the enduring power of love.
Sean Nelson has a talent for what he considers the important things in life: finishing his college baseball career at the University of Miami in a blaze of glory before he would begin his lucrative professional career, making wise cracks, drinking beer, and drifting aimlessly through his classes. He also had an obsession for one woman from the moment he laid eyes on her. Allison Stewart, “Allie,” a premed major at Sean’s College, is as beautiful as she is brilliant. But to win Allie’s heart, Sean discovers that he would not only have to grow up, but also compete with another man.
Roger Atwater, older than Allie, and doing a fellowship in hand surgery at NYU when the story opens, has loved Allie since the day she was sixteen. But distance and time are not in Roger’s favor. He is over a thousand miles from Allie, and has a year to go before completing his fellowship.
Sean and Allie begin to date, and Sean falls deeply in love with the woman who is slowly, and methodically, making him a better man. Allie‘s feelings for Sean are also real, but she is conflicted because of her love for Roger. Then, when Roger returns to Miami to open his practice, the story quickly evolves into three hearts in a tangle. Both men vie for Allie’s love, until a devastating accident changes all of their lives forever.
​
And Falls The Rain is a deeply moving story that is both heartfelt and tragic. It is a novel that will grab you and stay with you forever.
"The surface of the bay was glassy and it was a moonless night. The smell of salt was thick—almost palpable—like you could reach out and grab some in your hand. ‘There’s times you need to check that ego at the door,’ Allie’s words echoed in my ears. A flash of lightning pierced the night sky, and then cool drops of rain began to fall."
