About the Book:

What would you do if you had the power to change fate?

When Alice’s best friend, Gabby, is reeling from yet another breakup, Alice feels compelled to write her a strange, yet heartfelt story to cheer her up. While reading it in a café, Gabby, as if by magic, meets the man of her dreams. Thinking the story might have some special power to it, Gabby shares it with her sister and a few other friends, who all find instant love. Word of mouth spreads, and Alice stumbles upon a new calling—to be a love scribe. She even starts a business, with the help of her first accidental customer.

But not all the love stories she writes unfold as expected. And while Alice tries to harness her extraordinary gift, she is summoned to a mansion in the woods where she encounters the reclusive Madeline Alger and her mysterious library. As Alice struggles to write a story for Madeline, she realizes there is a lot more to Madeline – and her house – than wanting to hire her. She’s also forced to confront her own guarded heart. Because maybe—just maybe—there’s a love story waiting to be written for her, too.

Emotional, deeply imaginative and brimming with valuable life lessons, The Love Scribe explores love, fate and the power of stories when we choose to believe in them.
