A Publishers Weekly Pick of the Week and a New York Post Required Reading Pick.
It all starts when four unsuspecting women, on a singles' bike trip through Normandy, discover a mysterious red book about love. But did they discover it-or did the book bring them together? Somehow the possibly magical Love Book will insinuate itself into Emily's, Beatrice's, Max's, and Cathy's lives, which so far haven't turned out exactly the way society, their families, or they themselves have planned. Along the way, they'll be nudged, cajoled, inspired-perhaps even "guided"-in spite of themselves to discover love, fulfillment, and the true nature of being a soul mate.
