Klappentext
When indie musician Mike Maimone meets legendary publicist Howard Bragman, neither expects a once-in-a-lifetime love story to unfold. Despite their perceived differences, they quickly build a world together based on music, humor, hard-won wisdom, and the unexpected tenderness that comes from finding your forever person just when you'd given up looking.
But when Howard is diagnosed with cancer on the eve of Mike's proposal, the life they had been envisioning together changes overnight. What follows is both devastating and luminous-a final chapter marked by brutal honesty, fierce devotion, and moments of grace that arrive exactly when they're needed most.
Guess What? I Love You is Mike's memoir of the great love of his life and the tragedy of losing it too soon. He has also produced an album of the same name. As he channels his grief into words and music-guided by beautiful and inexplicable synchronicities-readers witness a transformation from heartbreak toward healing. The result is both a portrait of love and a testament to resilience: a deeply intimate yet universal story celebrating love's power to endure.
PRAISE: "A memoir that speaks true to the overwhelming grief of a cherished time cut short, and to the joy of a richly remembered relationship."
- Kirkus Reviews Get it.
"A heartfelt, poignant memoir... Readers looking for real-life examples of enduring, mature love standing firm against all challenges will fully enjoy Guess What? I Love You."
- BlueInk Review Starred Review
"The book is a masterclass in emotional precision. It is an essential read for anyone navigating grief, proving that love's spectrum remains vast even in the face of loss."
- The Fight Magazine
"This release holds significance for the LGBTQ+ community, where grief from loss-whether by death or separation-intersects with broader resilience narratives. Maimone's emphasis on healing offers a model for transgender people, gay men, and others processing personal tragedies through art."
- Edge Media Network
"Maimone's beautifully written, deeply moving memoir will stir the soul of anyone who reads it. This story captures all the joy, wonders and heartaches of finding a new love, only to end tragically. The heart of this book is the very moving private relationship of two men whose lives come together through the magic of love, in an extraordinary way that neither one thought was possible, showing us all that love can last a lifetime - even through death."
- THOMAS MAIER, New York Times bestselling author of Masters of Sex
"Utilizing slices of charm and entertainment, this beautifully crafted piece demonstrates that love, in its purest form, lives beyond time and space and continues to grow stronger with the dawning of each new day!"
- JAMES VAN PRAAGH, #1 New York Times bestselling spiritual medium
"One of those understated revelations that says something big and elusive about what it means to be alive. About the beauty of loving someone. And the impossibility of losing them. It's writing that sticks with you. The way Mike captures their love - the intimacy, the playfulness, their resilience in the face of heartbreak and their insistence on loving each other despite it - is deeply moving."
