You just want to keep reading the words. Being a long time Cary Grant fan I was initially drawn in by Cornelia meeting a dreamy man who looked exactly like Cary Grant and seemed just as suave.
But the story is so much more than that. And how things — and people — are not always what you think they are and wish they would be. And how sometimes they are more than you would ever have expected.
The bottom line is that this is a spellbinding love story that you will become completely immersed in. Love Walked In is full of beautiful phrases and movie references and humor and is a great read that I highly recommend.
Cornelia, a thirty-something cafe manager, and Clare, an eleven-year-old child of divorced parents, cross paths. Told in alternating chapters, Cornelia and Clare share their lives with one another. With my heart full of hopes, I am sad to say that I was not pleased with this book.
I thought for sure I was going to enjoy it. As the story began, the chapters about Cornelia were okay, but soon after, the book began to coast downhill. The two major components that brought it down were: the character, Clare, the undeniably out-of-character character, and the story line, too predictable and contrived.
This was not a good read for me and I'm very concerned that I will not enjoy the sequel Belong to Me, which has been raved about.
Maybe next year I'll attempt it, but for now - not a chance. I really enjoyed this novel and read the sequel, but it's not so well done that Id give it a five.
I read it as a lighter read. This is a must-read book! If you're thinking that this is your typical love story, chic-lit book then you're wrong! It is a love story but the focus is not on romantic love between a man and a woman but more of love between "friends", love between mother and daughter. You have to read this to truly appreciate it.
Apart from a great story line it also has great characters consistent characterization and great writing style. I would recommend this to everybody! A complete surprise!! I expected a chick-lit forgettable romance, what I found was not a forgetable romance, tho' this still may be considered chick-lit! Loved each and every part of this book. I will definitely recommend this book to fiction, womens fiction lovers.

Add a review Your Rating: Your Comment:. Unapologetically idealistic about love, Cornelia Brown appears to catch the break of a lifetime when the dashing Martin Grace, her own personal Cary Grant, comes strolling into her life.
The book investigates such questions as: How do you love someone when you get no love in return, only withdrawal or ingratitude. How do you love without being trapped or used by another person? The author writes candidly and delicately, thoroughly in tune to the quiet domestic dramas of life. The characters in Love Walked In can little afford to leave their troubles behind, or even live in an in-between space where you think troubles can't find you.
For all these characters, denial and defiance is. Love Walked In is every bit as engaging as the classic movies Marisa de los Santos lovingly invokes. ISBN Summary A tribute to classic film and true romance, Love Walked In tells the story of two women—one older, one younger—and the unexpected ways in which their lives are forever changed by chance.
For thirty-one-year old Cornelia Brown, life is a series of movie moments, and "Jimmy Stewart is always. Love can be so unexpected and can arrive in our lives at just the right time. See the complete Love Walked In series book list in order, box sets or omnibus editions, and companion titles. Charming and debonair, the spitting image of Cary Grant, Martin sweeps Cornelia off her feet, but, as it turns out, Martin Grace is more the harbinger of change than change itself.
