I didn’t have anything on my list…and then, while scrolling through Library Thing, I found it, SERENDIPITOUSLY! Sarah Jio is one of my favorite authors these days, and she has a new one coming out on November 25, 2014. Yay! The Look of Love is the story of one woman’s gift: the ability to see true love.
Blurb: Born during a Christmas blizzard, Jane Williams receives a rare gift: the ability to see true love. Jane has emerged from an ailing childhood a lonely, hopeless romantic when, on her twenty-ninth birthday, a mysterious greeting card arrives, specifying that Jane must identify the six types of love before the full moon following her thirtieth birthday, or face grave consequences. When Jane falls for a science writer who doesn’t believe in love, she fears that her fate is sealed. Inspired by the classic song, The Look of Love is utterly enchanting.

This cover is quite different from those of Jio’s other books…I don’t know how much I like it, except that I adore the colors. The brightness stands out and seems like a celebration of some kind.
What are you sharing today? I hope you’ll stop by and share….

I love the sound of this one. I’m going to add this on my TBR list now! LOL 🙂 It’ll be so interesting to see where this story would go. I haven’t read anything from this author yet so I hope I like her writing style too. 🙂
