Publisher Description
They come together by chance in the heart of New York City, four young women at turning points in their lives. Claire finds the spacious loft apartment. But the aspiring shoe designer needs at least one roommate to manage the rent. She meets Abby, a writer trying to make it on her own, far from her successful family in L.A. Then Morgan joins them. She’s ambitious, with a serious finance job on Wall Street. Finally Sasha, a medical student. And so the sprawling space, with its exposed brick and rich natural light, becomes a home to friends about to embark on new exhilarating adventures.
Their shared life in the apartment turns them into a family of beloved friends. But as unexpected opportunities and challenges alter the course of each of their lives, they face the bittersweet reality that in time, they will inevitably move away from the place where their dreams began . . .
Danielle Steel is famous for her inspirational stories about family, love and life. Her novels will be enjoyed by readers of Penny Vincenzi, Jodi Picoult and Diane Chamberlain.
Customer Reviews
Mood lifting
This book made me think a lot at a film version of the story. It isn’t Rom com and neither romance, but the story of a group of friends under one roof who go through all sorts of ups and downs in a present setting.
I enjoyed the way some events are the start or the end of others and of course there is a vibe of happiness being prominent even in sad situations. At times and it might be just very personal, I felt that I was reading what most people would like to happen and that some dialogues were coming from people I have never met in my life.
But I guess there is a huge number of fans who tired of the reality of daily life, dream just to escape.
Predictable narrative
Repetition of character analysis and events / the story line could have been told in half the no of pages .
Amazing
Couldn't put this book down one of my favourites
The stories of each character is amazing and keeps you hooked
