I absolutely adored this rather magical story. It has a leather jacket that transforms a young woman from grief to love as each time she puts it on, she is transported to an event in another’s memory. The events tell the jacket’s story-from belonging to her deceased uncle to being in the possession of a musician. The musician is her new roommate and love blooms. Love and fate meet for a delightful story.
