The book starts out with the five characters personal stories and being invited to the invitations to the Fifth Avenue Story Society and not knowing why or who the invitation comes from..... leads to them all going to the meeting. Each person has a different story from the others and start to connect to each other when they keep meeting. When friendships develop they start to develop friendships and relationships that seem to connect in the end...I would recommend this to any Rachel fan, if you haven't read her books you will want to start. I like how this story ties everyone at the end. This is a book that makes you guess where this all ties in and how they will end up. I found myself reading through this with wanting to know who sent the invite, why they are together and where do the characters come together? This is another great read from Rachel.
