Love Scribe

Alice has an unusual gift: the stories she writes help people fall in love. It starts when her best friend Gabby is reeling from a breakup and Alice writes her a heartfelt story to lift her spirits. While Gabby is reading it in a café, she meets the man of her dreams, as if by magic.

Suspecting the story has some special power, Gabby passes it to her sister and other friends, and they all find instant love. Word spreads, and Alice finds a new calling as a love scribe. Not every story she writes turns out the way she expects, though.

While Alice tries to understand and control her gift, she is called to a mansion in the woods, where she meets the reclusive Madeline Alger and her mysterious library. Writing a story for Madeline proves her hardest assignment yet, and it forces Alice to face her own guarded heart. Perhaps a love story is waiting to be written for her as well.

The novel explores love, fate, and the power of stories when we choose to believe in them. It is by Amy Meyerson, author of The Bookshop of Yesterdays.
