Book description:
The Idea of Love is a duplicitous and compelling story of love lost and found in unexpected places and is praised by New York Times bestselling author Dorothea Benton Frank as "so wonderful I wish I had written it myself...This is a huge winner--no lie!"
A
Nicholas Sparks-esque screenwriter lacking inspiration in the wake of
his divorce, Blake is desperately in search of a love story beautiful
enough to translate into big screen success. Disguising himself as a
travel writer, he treks down the east coast to sleepy southern Watersend
in search of a love story he can borrow. When he speaks with the young
and beautiful Ella Flynn, he's convinced he has his screenplay: Ella's
beloved husband died saving her life. It's the perfect love story for
his audiences...and it's also a lie.
Reeling
from the shock of her very much alive husband's affair, Ella is lost.
When she speaks to Blake and dismisses him as a stranger she'll never
see again, she creates the life she wants and paints herself as a
successful wedding dress designer recovering from her saintly husband's
sacrificial death.
Drawn
to each other's lies and grappling with their flawed understandings of
love, Ella and Blake's chance meeting gradually leads to more encounters
and a larger web of deceit. As Blake and Ella bind themselves tighter
with the lies they tell, the inevitable unraveling of their stories will
end as neither imagined.
Patti Callahan Henry is a New York Times bestselling storyteller of eleven books, including The Stories We Tell, Between the Tides, and Driftwood Summer. Patti lives in Mountain Brook, Alabama with her husband and three children, where she is crafting her next story.
