When an astronaut is lost in space, his wife relives their epic love as she attempts to unravel what truly happened to him, in this sweeping love story set against the backdrop of the 1960s Space Race, from the New York Times bestselling author of The Lost Story of Eva Fuentes.

When Joe Mitchell launches into space, the world is watching. It’s 1968, and the country waits with anticipation and excitement for another successful mission, another celebration as America sets its sights on the Moon. And then comes the knock at the door.

Joe Mitchell’s spacecraft has lost contact. He and his fellow astronauts onboard are feared to be dead. It’s his wife Vivian’s worst nightmare come to life, her grief suddenly taking center stage as the nation waits and mourns. In her quiet moments, Vivian relives their memorable story, unable to accept that this is the end to a love that felt as though it was written in the stars.

As the investigation surrounding Joe’s lost spacecraft intensifies and the mishap is written off as an operator error, Vivian is determined to clear her husband’s name and uncover the mystery of what happened in space. When someone starts sending Vivian messages—messages she believes only Joe could send—she begins to wonder if their love is stronger than space and time, and she’ll do whatever it takes to bring her husband back to her.

"Cleeton's most deeply personal and deeply moving book yet! As an Air Force spouse herself, Cleeton paints Vivian's agony for her husband's safety and her frustration with a system built on the unseen labor of its military wives with keen understanding and endless sympathy. Both a tender romantic drama and a fascinating deep dive into the 1960s space race, An Infinite Love Story soars as high as its astronauts." --Kate Quinn, New York Times bestselling author of The Briar Club

Review Quotes:

"An infinitely pleasurable read, it makes us yearn for the kind of love Cleeton depicts so beautifully: one that transcends the ordinariness of time and space and is, quite simply, extraordinary. The story also brings to life the early years of the Space Program and I was fascinated by the scenes of hope and despair as the astronauts and their families tackle what seems to be impossible--sending a man not just into space, but all the way to the moon. Chanel's incredible range as a writer is on full display in this dazzling novel." -- Natasha Lester, New York Times bestselling author of The Paris Orphan

"An Infinite Love Story is the kind of book that makes you think as much as feel, and wish as much as wonder. This poignant tribute to the kind of love that defies every earthly constraint will stay with you long past the final pages. Fresh, riveting, dreamy." --Laura Taylor Namey, New York Times bestselling author of A Cuban Girl's Guide to Tea and Tomorrow
