Phaedra Patrick

Book - 2024

On the verge of her second marriage, Carla Carter knows she's finally found the one. She and her fiancé, Tom, met through Logical Love, a dating agency she founded for the pragmatically minded, and she's confident that, together, they will dispel an old family curse claiming Carter women are unlucky in love. For peace of mind, Carla's family insists she visit a fortune teller before she ties the knot. Except the tarot unexpectedly reveals that the love of Carla's life is not Tom, but one of the several men she briefly dated during her European gap year--twenty-one years ago. Only weeks away from her big day, Carla sets off across Europe to track down her exes from that unforgettable year, desperate to prove the fortune ...teller wrong. From Spain to Portugal, Italy to France, will one be her perfect match? And can a face from her past help Carla rewrite her entire family history--forever?

Review by Booklist Review

After divorcing her first husband, Carla Carter took a practical, scientific approach to her love life by starting the dating agency, Logical Love, which takes all the guesswork out of finding a romantic partner. Now, weeks away from marrying the steadfast Tom, Carla's family persuades her to visit a fortune-teller due to the family's long-held belief that the women are all cursed in love. T he tarot cards reveal that a man from Carla's past holds the key to her future happiness and, determined not to make another mistake in love, Carla sets off on an adventure to reconnect with the men she met when she traveled during her gap year. As Carla retraces her steps and reconnects with her past, she begins questioning whether marrying Tom is the right choice for her future. Readers looking for a touching story about love and self-discovery in the vein of One Italian Summer (2022), by Rebecca Serle, or The Year of Second Chances (2023), by Lara Avery, will find much to enjoy in this heartfelt and appealing story of following your heart.
