The Shape of My Heart by Tiffanie Debartolo
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 like to know why the hell a person would make up a thing like that. Wry yet vulnerable, Beatrice Jordan isn't the sort of woman who usually answers 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, effervescent thirty-something writer, a free spirit who is a passionate seeker of life. He possesses his own turn of phrase and ways of thinking and feeling that dissonantly harmonise with Beatrice's off-centre vision as they roller coaster through the joys and furies of their heart-wrenching romance. Along the way they try to come to terms with the hurt brought about by their distant fathers who, in different ways, forsook them.
'Funny, fresh and sharply contemporary: a romance that defines off-beat but is as deeply felt as any' Eileen Goudge 'a star-crossed romance in the hipper outreaches of Los AngelesDeBartolo's combination of one-liners and three-hankie tearjerking is skillful...This generation's Love Story' Kirkus Reviews
