Title: Summer in the City Author: Robyn Sisman type of book: Adult Fiction / Chick Lit call number: FIC/ROM

This book is strong in character, story and setting.

Summary:
Schneider Fox and sister company (New York and London offices) participate in a yearly employee exchange program to share ideas and culture. Last minute circumstances make Suze, from London's art design, the one swapping apartments with Lloyd, the creative director in New York. They talk by phone and email to set things up and discuss odd things happening at work.

Suze learns why Lloyd is suddenly fired. Suze inspires Lloyd to fight back. Over their phone teamwork they discover they like each other and maybe the people they are currently dating are not right for them. Lloyd's best friend Jay secretly helps the couple's friendship along.

I would recommend this book!

Why?
Finally - a book about thirty-something dating and relationships that must balance work, love, and friendship while having personal integrity!
