Description



Book Synopsis



A wartime romance. A journalist on the brink. And miraculous reunion that changes everything.

For readers of Eat, Pray, Love, Tuesdays With Morrie and Untamed, this poignant true story reminds us that it's never too late for love.

Kara is a journalist stuck in a crumbling marriage, quietly losing hope. When she's assigned to write a human interest piece on WWII veterans, she meets Bob--a sharp, charming nonagenarian who shares his greatest regret: that he missed out on marrying the love of his life--a woman named Joy.

It's been over 60 years. Joy is somewhere out there. And Bob has one last wish: to find her before it's too late.

What begins as a routine assignment turns into the story that changes everything. As Kara sets out to reunite two long-lost lovers, she's forced to confront the losses and longings in her own life. What unfolds is a moving, unforgettable journey through memory, healing, and the enduring power of love.

Tell Me About Joy is a beautifully written true story about the lives we live, the choices we carry, and the unexpected ways love can find us again--even after all this time.
