Abide With Me follows a rising New York actor, Raymond Tyler Jr., as he tries to rebuild a life that keeps slipping out of his hands — juggling fame, heartbreak, old wounds and the complicated pull of the past. The story moves through love triangles, hidden desires and the pressure of living openly versus living safely, all framed in E. Lynn Harris’ smooth, emotional style. As Raymond reconnects with familiar faces and confronts the mistakes that shaped him, the novel builds into a mix of romance, drama and second chances, exploring how hard it is to truly move on, and how necessary it is to finally decide who you want to be.
