La Sonrisa de Las Mujeres / Ingredients of Love - Nicolas Barreau

Una comedia rom�ntica llena de magia con un Par�s pintoresco como tel�n de fondo que ha embelesado a millones de lectores en todo el mundo.

Par�s no siempre parece la ciudad del amor y menos en un d�a triste de noviembre cuando se tiene el coraz�n roto. En este escenario, Aur�lie trata de cobijarse en una librer�a donde hace un hallazgo maravilloso. Cae en sus manos un libro con un t�tulo que le atrae al instante, La sonrisa de las mujeres. Al empezar a leerlo, no puede salir de su asombro. Se menciona el nombre del restaurante del que ella es propietaria, pero es que adem�s se siente profundamente identifi cada con la protagonista. Se podr�a decir incluso que son como dos gotas de agua.

Intrigada por la coincidencia, no puede evitar tratar de ponerse en contacto con el autor a trav�s de su editor... aunque conocer al misterioso Robert Miller parece imposible.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A charming restaurant...
A book and its mysterious author...
A little secret...
A romantic meeting...
Paris and all its magic...

Cyrano de Bergerac meets Chocolat and Am�lie in this intelligent, charming, and entertaining publishing sensation from Europe.

While in the midst of a breakup-induced depression, Aur�lie Bredin, a beautiful Parisian restaurateur, discovers an astonishing novel in a quaint bookshop on the Ile Saint-Louis. Inexplicably, her restaurant and Aur�lie herself are featured in its pages. After reading the whole book in one night, she realizes it has saved her life--and she wishes more than anything to meet its author. Aur�lie's attempts to contact the attractive but shy English author through his French publishers are blocked by the company's gruff chief editor, Andr�, who only with great reluctance forwards Aur�lie's enthusiastic letter. But Aur�lie refuses to give up. One day, a response from the reclusive author actually lands in her mailbox, but the encounter that eventually takes place is completely different from what she had ever imagined. . . . Filled with books, recipes, and characters that leap off the page, The Ingredients of Love by Nicolas Barreau is a tribute to the City of Light.
