Publisher Description
Inspired by the classic song, this magical story from the New York Times bestselling author of Always and Blackberry Winter tells the tale of a woman with the unusual gift to see true love—but will she be able to find it for herself before it’s too late?
Born during a Christmas blizzard, Jane Williams receives a rare gift: the ability to see true love. In spite of her unique talent, Jane has emerged from an ailing childhood a lonely, hopeless romantic without love on her life.
On her twenty-ninth birthday, a mysterious greeting card arrives. The card specifies that Jane must identify the six types of love before the full moon following her thirtieth birthday—or face grave consequences. But when Jane at last falls for a science writer who doesn’t believe in love, she fears that she may never accomplish her task—and that her loveless fate may be sealed...

Sweet
An adorable romance if you enjoy sweet love
not convinced
I have read all of Sarah Jio's books, I enjoy her writing, its relaxing, filled with nice characters and lovely stories. However, I was not convinced by this book. I wouldnt call it cheesy, I think its an awful word. Its about love and the quest for love. Though she is correct in depicting very different kinds of love, I found the book too hard to believe. Life is just more complicated than that. And after so many books, I think she could try with a different twist. Anyway, if you are up for an easy reading, warming story, well this is your book, especially at this time of the year, one wants to be able to dream.
Don't do it
This book is the equivalent of an ABC family cheesy movie that you continue to watch because you have already invested too much time in it.
