The Red Coat

Who says love has to be serious? Even though the protagonist claims she has no sense of humor, true love is supposed to make us laugh until we cry-and lift us on wings of lightness. Alice is wearing her red coat the first time she sees him, in the parking lot of a supermarket. But he-red coat or not-doesn't even spare her a glance. She doesn't give up, though. After being left with a broken heart, Alice is determined to take her life back into her own hands, and the indifferent look of a stranger is not going to shake her confidence. Together with Luce, a neighbor she meets in rather heated circumstances, and her lifelong friends Bianca and Irene, Alice sets out on a journey of self-discovery-and love. >About the author...

Or at least, that's what she believes...
