A Map of Love

<p><strong>A Map of Love</strong></p><p>Mira Laurent is an archivist who prefers the quiet company of centuries-old maps to the unpredictability of the present. When she discovers a cryptic hand-drawn map tucked inside a donated journal she is pulled into a mystery that defies all her academic training. The map is not of any known geography but a constellation of strange symbols pointing to a love story left unfinished. Desperate for answers she enlists the help of Elias Rowe a disillusioned travel photographer whose breathtaking photographs hide a heart wary of any permanent connections.</p><p>Together they embark on a breathtaking quest across the globe-from the lantern-lit forests of Kyoto to the glacial caves of Iceland from the soaring balloons of Cappadocia to the windswept plains of Patagonia. Each destination reveals a new clue about the map's creators a couple who a century before embarked on their own journey of courage and devotion. As Mira and Elias trace their footsteps the line between past and present blurs and their own guarded hearts begin to unlock. They are no longer just following a map; they are learning that the greatest adventure of all is charting the unknown territory of the human heart and that some journeys are meant to be shared.</p>
