Set in New York at Christmas time, this second chance romance will not disappoint. This clean romance has something for everyone, medical, cute kids and a dog. It’s well written and the characters are great. I’m loving the cute cover too.

"This play was transcendent. It’s a seed that plants itself in your conscience, grows around your heart, and strangles you every few hours. Everyone who saw it at New York Theater Workshop will have bragging rights for years to come."

"I discovered Amy recently in her New York Times essay “You May Want to Marry My Husband.” This moved me to tears and had me laughing out loud. She is the sort of writer you want to be friends with immediately."

"Ah, what downtrodden magic there is in here—you can smell the docks of New York, and you believe in falling in love in the most misguided way possible. Love is all wrong and is all we’ve got. Beautiful film!"

"This lyrical tale of two friends in cultural heyday New York City elicits nostalgia for a time I didn't even experience firsthand. As an artist, this story speaks to me on many levels and inspires me to be honest, shameless, and creative."

"Quintessential Spike Lee. Brooklyn. Hottest day of the year. This film defined a generation of filmmakers and artists that followed. For me, as an artist growing up in New York, Spike Lee was an inspiration. He showed us it could be done."

Journey Back to 1930’s New York
Lane Sanders has landed a job as the personal assistant to New York City’s mayor Fiorello “Fio” La Guardia in 1936 New York City. She’s enjoying her job even though some days it feels like she is just trying to keep up with her energetic boss as he is on a crusade to clean up the city. One night, at the scene of a fire, Lane receives a warning for her boss. But soon she begins to wonder if there is more to the warning. And is she really a target?

This new series gets off to a promising start. There’s a good mystery here that kept me engaged most of the time and certainly had me turning pages during the suspenseful climax. I did feel the beginning wandered a bit too much, although it did all come into play by the end. Likewise, the ending could have been tighter as it set up the next in the series. The characters, both real and fictional, are a varied bunch and a delight to be around
