The Last Phone Booth In Manhattan by Beth Merlin and Danielle Modafferi

This book is an absolute gem. This book begins like a happy ending to a Hallmark Christmas movie and and the life of our MC Avery Lawrence takes a steep turn into nowhereland. She manages to go from riches to rags in a matter of a day. I'll admit, I thought this book would be more "christmasy" based on the candy canes, holly, etc on the cover but this is not a christmas story. Do not let that deter you from reading this. I did not actually arrive at a full theme/grasp on the story until pretty close to the end. But let me tell you, the journey was wonderful. I honestly could not put this book down. Like, reading in the kindle app on my phone during bathroom breaks at work. That type of "could not put it down." While I wouldn't classify this as a love story, the characters are thoughtful, the story is exciting and the ending is phenomenal. If you LOVE Broadway, you'll love this book. If you don't love Broadway, you'll probably still love this book. I highly recommend this book. During ANY season.
