The Shape Of My Heart

'When I was twelve, a fortune teller told me that my one true love would die young and leave me all alone. Everyone said she was a fraud, that she was just making it up. I'd really liek to knw why the hell a person would make up a thing like that.'

Wry yet vulnerable, Beatrice Jordan isn't the sort of woman who usuallyanswers personal ads but she is unable to resist the following: "If your intentions are pure, I am seeking a friend for the end of the world."

In doing so, she meets Jacob Grace, a charming, thirty-something writer. As they roller-coaster thorug the joys and furies of their heart-wrenching romance, they try to come to terms with the hurt brought about by their distant fathers who, in different ways, forsook them.

'The Shape Of My Heart' is a memorable, poignant love sotyr that will appeal to fans of Tama Janowitz and Melissa Banks.
