44 Charles Street by Danielle Steel

4.0

I have to admit that I was not expecting much other than a fun and romantic story from this one, but parts of it surprised me. Many of the characters were predictable and enjoyable, but a few of them had sides to their personalities that I didn't expect. On it's surface, the story is about Francesca, a young woman who has ended a relationship with a man whom she purchased a house with and has to figure out how to continue to live in the house with its large mortgage payments. She takes in three roommates: Eileen, Marya, and Chris. The story follows them as they grow to become friends and develop in their relationships together and apart. Parts of this story are a little disturbing but are things that could happen in real life without the sugar coating. I enjoyed the story and would recommend it.
