“This one brims with magic... An absolute page-turner and joy to read!— Jane Green, New York Times bestselling author
A surprising astrology reading sends Natasha Sizlo—divorced, broke, freshly heartbroken, and reeling from her father’s death—on an unexpected but magical journey to France, in pursuit of a man born on a particular date in a particular place: November 2, 1968 in Paris.
It’s the cusp of Natasha Sizlo’s forty-fourth birthday. Still reeling from her disastrous divorce, she’s navigating life as a single mom and doing her best to fake it till she makes it in the cutthroat world of LA real estate. In the meantime, her ex-husband is dating a Hollywood star, and she’s just broken it off—for the hundredth and final time—with her devastatingly handsome but impossibly noncommittal French boyfriend.
Just when it seems things can’t get any worse, her beloved father is given months to live.
So when she’s gifted a session with LA’s most sought-after astrologist, Natasha—despite being a total skeptic—figures she has nothing to lose. The reading is eerily, impossibly accurate. As her misgivings give way, Natasha can’t help but ask about her ex-boyfriend, the French man she can’t seem to get over.
To her surprise, the astrologist tells her that he is perfect for her. His birthday and birthplace—November 2, 1968, in Paris, France—lines up with her astrological point of destiny. The word husband comes up.
Natasha is distraught. Panicked, even. Was he really The One? Was this all the big soul love she was destined for?
Then, she has a lightning bolt of an idea: her ex wasn’t the only man born on November 2, 1968, in Paris. Natasha’s real soulmate is still out there—she just has to find him.
Joined by her sister and two of her closest girlfriends and buoyed by her father’s parting message to never give up on love, Natasha flies to the City of Light, determined to take destiny into her own hands.
Propulsive, touching, and darkly funny, All Signs Point to Paris is the story of one woman’s search for a second chance at love, with a dusting of astrological magic. Unforgettable and inspiring, Natasha’s journey reveals what can happen when you ask the universe for what you want—and are brave enough to open your heart when the answer finally comes.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Emily in Paris meets Celebrity Astrology Investigation in L.A. real estate agent Sizlo's humorous debut memoir, which follows the quest for love that sparked her romantic journey to France. Grieving her father's death and a painful breakup from "Mr. Not-So-Right-After-All," Sizlo, a 43-year-old divorced single mom, reluctantly acquiesced when her best friend gave her a reading from a popular astrologer to the stars. Though previously a skeptic, Sizlo was stunned by its accuracy and even more perplexed by the astrologer's conclusion that based on her ex, Philippe's, birthday and place of birth—November 2, 1968, Paris—he was, in fact, the One. Determined to debunk this, Sizlo embarked on a search for "as many men as possible" from Paris with the same birthday, beginning first on Instagram and later winding up on a grand Parisian adventure with her sister and two close friends. The clumsy escapades that arise from her "serial-killer wall of Tinder profiles and maps of Paris" are often obscenely funny, but readers looking for a charming distraction from life online may tire of her preoccupations with gaining social media clout ("I had almost three thousand followers now, and that meant something to me"). Nevertheless, when Sizlo's stars align, it's impossible not to cheer for her. This adventurous romp will enchant romantics and astrology-lovers alike.
