From the Back Cover:
"A touching, triumphant story of the power and variety and responsibility of love. A joy to read, filled with characters you wish you knew in real life. Love Walked In is every bit as engaging as the classic movies Marisa de los Santos lovingly invokes."
—Karen Joy Fowler, author of The Jane Austen Book Club
"A bewitching, warm-hearted grown-up fairy tale about old movies, charming princes, and finding happily ever after in the place where you'd least expect it."
—Jennifer Weiner, author of Good in Bed, In Her Shoes, and Little Earthquakes
"Exquisite and stylish, Love Walked In proves that love in all of its forms--romantic, friendship, familial--is all around us."
—Sarah Jessica Parker
"Marisa de los Santos's funny and beautifully written love story is as luminous as the silver screen."
—Lolly Winston, author of Good Grief
"An impossibly warm, acute, romantic spree, with room in its heart for all of us. Marisa de los Santos offers us two fine young heroines, Cornelia and Clare, and she trains a rich, brimming, silver screen light on their sorrows and elations. Since Love Walked In borrows so magically from the spirit of a certain Frank Capra film, I'll second the motion: It's A Wonderful Novel."
—David Schickler, author of Sweet and Vicious and Kissing in Manhattan
"Love Walked In is a brilliant novel—beautiful, hilarious, rich in detail and cultural commentary. While an expose of our desires for old world romance, elegant leading men, and the perfect shoes, this novel is also a bone-deep examination of inner lives, the bonds between women, and the prospects of borderline madness."
—Julianna Baggott, author of Girl Talk, The Miss America Family and The Madam
