All Roads Lead Me Back to You is the best novel I've read in a very long time. I've never read anything like it before, yet, it's a very straight forward love story. Alice, the lead, is the kind of woman I'd want to have as a best friend. She's strong and loyal yet warm and funny. The love between Alice and Domingo is so tangible and real, I literally cheered and damn near cried when they finally came together. Foster is a master who has created a story that is light and heavy at the same time. How? HOW?! You'll feel as though you've been part of a family and actually miss them when you turn the last page. A keeper and a book I'll be recommending with my dying breath if necessary. Yes! I love it that much. Read it. Just read it.Plot:Alice is a rancher in Washington State, all alone, except for her charming family who's as awesome as she is. Domingo Roque is an undocumented worker who falls of his horse while running from immigration police and Alice rescues him. She takes him in, patches him up, and finds he's not a bad ranch hand. They navigate cultural and gender differences in Spanglish and manage to become friends. He helps her save the ranch and fend off the creepy co-owner determined to sell his half of the ranch to pay off his gambling debts. And they eventually fall in love, head over heels. So beautiful, the word almost doesn't do it justice. Okay, I'm getting sappy. Over and out.
