Love Walked In is so much more than a chick lit book. There was momma drama, romance, friendship and growing whole no matter what your age. Noticeably written by a poet, the language is fluid and elegant. This is an author to watch!

Quotes I liked:

Happiness isn’t what happens when you whistle along, pretending bad things don’t exist—Happiness is earned, like everything else. It’s achieved.”

-“We talked and talked and talked. Maybe love comes in at the eyes, but not nearly as much as it comes in at the ears, at least in my experience. As we talked, lights flicked on inside my head; by the end of the night I was a planetarium.”

-“There’s a kind of holiness to love, requited or not, and those people who don’t receive it with gratitude are arrogant beyond saving.”

-“I spoke, I listened, and my heart broke, which is to say that it didn’t break at all but became suddenly aware of its own wholeness in such a way it hurt like hell.”
