  I didn't love her. But, I suddenly understood, it wouldn't take much. Cornelia and Clare haven't met yet, but they need each other more than they realise. Cornelia is drifting through life, working in a cafe at 31, still waiting for Prince Charming to show up. On the other side of town, eleven-year-old Clare is broken-hearted. Her mother has become terrifyingly unpredictable; her father, always distant, seems less interested in her than ever. With no one to turn to Clare must fend for herself - until by chance she meets Cornelia, and they form a bond that is as unusual and heart-warming as it is deep.

  'My life, my real life, started when a man walked into it, a handsome stranger in a perfectly cut suit, and, yes, I know how that sounds'. For 31-year-old Cornelia Brown, life is a series of movie moments, and 'Jimmy Stewart is always and indisputably the best man in the world, unless Cary Grant should happen to show up'. So, imagine Cornelia's delight when her very own Cary Grant walks through the door of the hip Philadelphia cafe in which she works. But, when Cornelia meets 11-year-old Clare, their lives are forever changed in unexpected ways...Funny, touching and smart, Love Walked In is a winning tribute to classic film and true romance.
