Publisher's Synopsis
La divertida comedia romántica en la que se basa la exitosa serie de Netflix.
Las estrellas no mienten... Los hombres sì.
Nunca he creìdo en el horóscopo. ¿Sabéis por qué? Porque te dice que estás viviendo un periodo favorable, te da tres estrellas en salud, dinero y amor y, sin embargo, tú te sientes como un trapo viejo, tu vida sentimental es un desastre y tu trabajo pende de un hilo.
¡Bienvenidas al club de las desdichadas intergalácticas!
Me llamo Alice y hasta hace unos meses mi autoestima estaba por los suelos. Mi ex estaba a punto de ser padre y por la cadena de televisión en la que trabajo acababa de aparecer un nuevo jefe con una sonrisa imposiblemente sexy y el apodo de &«el cortador de cabezas». Lo último que necesitaba.
Entonces a mi vida llegó Tio, mi entrenador astrológico personal, para convencerme de que mis problemas no eran debidos a un complot cósmico sino a la posición de los planetas en mi carta astral. Asì que lo único que podìa hacer era ponerme en sus manos y averiguar qué sorpresas me tenìan reservadas las estrellas.
Y os aseguro que lo que descubrì fue mucho más que eso porque, quizá, cuando se trata de amor... el destino no está escrito en el cielo.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Now a Netflix original series
Frustrated at the path her life has taken, Alice decides to take control of her personal life using astrology as her guide in this quirky, steamy, and hilarious romantic comedy.
Alice Bassi is (a little) over 30, single (not by choice), and she can't help but feel that she is failing at this whole adulthood thing. She's stuck in a dead-end job, just found out her ex-boyfriend is engaged to his pregnant girlfriend, and Richard Gere hasn't shown up with flowers and a limo to save her from it all.
On one particularly disastrous morning -when Alice would much rather have stayed home, curled up with her favorite rom-coms- she meets Davide Nardi. Handsome yet indecipherable, Davide would be the leading man of Alice's dreams- if only he weren't the "hatchet man" brought in to help streamline production and personnel at the small television network she works for.
In the midst of all this, Alice runs into Tio -an actor and astrology expert who is convinced he can turn her life around with a little help from the stars. Skeptical but willing Alice decides to take Tio's advice and only date men whose Zodiac signs are compatible with hers. Unfortunately, it turns out that astrological affinity doesn't always guarantee a perfect match, nor prevent a series of terrible dates, disappointments, and awkward surprises. It also doesn't keep Davide from becoming more attractive every day.
Perfect for fans of Bridget Jones's Diary and Star-Crossed, An Astrological Guide for Broken Hearts is a witty, sexy, and relatable portrait of a modern woman's search for love and a dream job, only to discover that your destiny isn't always written in the stars.
