Alice Pendelbury believes everything in her life is pretty much in order - from her good friends to her burgeoning career. But even Alice has to admit it’s been an odd week. Not only has her belligerent neighbor, Mr. Daldry, suddenly become a surprisingly agreeable confidant, but he’s encouraging her to take seriously the fortune-teller who told her that only by traveling to Turkey can Alice meet the most important person in her life. What’s more, the peculiarly insistent Mr. Daldry has even agreed to finance Alice’s trip - one that against all reason seems to be predestined.

Savannah Cade’s dreams are coming true. The Claire Donovan, editor-in-chief of the most successful romance publishing company in the country, has requested to see the manuscript Savannah’s been secretly writing. The only problem: she’s an editor for a different company, and their philosophy is only highbrow works are worth printing and romance should be reserved for the lowest level of Dante’s inferno. But when Savannah drops her manuscript during a staff meeting and nearly exposes herself to the whole company, she has no choice but to hide the manuscript in a hidden room.

Publisher's summary
An unexpected love story from Marc Levy, international bestselling author of The Last of the Stanfields, and the most widely read French author in the world.
It’s been five years since fate upended resilient Chloe Bronstein’s world. While she may be living with her father, and her acting career has taken a decidedly unexpected turn, she’s alive. And she’s intrigued by Sanji, the charming new elevator operator in her quaint Manhattan apartment building. There’s just something about the Mumbai-born, Oxford-educated, thoroughly modern elevator man that doesn’t quite add up.
Sanji is dazzled by Chloe. They have so much in common: Both defiant. Both independent. Both determined to live by their own rules. But there’s one thing about Sanji that Chloe doesn’t know. Yet.
However hesitant Chloe and Sanji’s burgeoning romance is - complicated by family, friends, neighbors, and the past - it also awakens them to life’s limitless possibilities.

A mystery, a love story, and a character tale
A different kind of book, this novel manages to captivate by defying one set of genre rules. It's a love story, with several stories of romance developed, across generations. There's character development, with interesting personal challenges posed to the characters that call into question a reader's own prejudices and values. A mystery intrigues as a meta-whodunit unfolds. And the narrator throughout voices plot and dialogue with the conviction of a gifted actor. Very worthwhile.

Left wing but cute
Ignore the political comments about Fox News. The story is well written & most folks will enjoy it.

As a former elevator operator...
To say this story is unusual and engaging doesn't come up to the level of surprise you experience. Can you even remember being in an elevator that needed an operator? I had that job in the '60s in a four-story department store. lol. Tension between cultures, economic classes and those with mobility impairments are mixed with romance and some rather innocent misunderstandings.

Pleasantly Surprised
I thoroughly enjoyed this novel as a testament to love, endurance, and strength of the human condition. The narration was fantastic and made all the difference over reading. It was humorous, sad, and the characters were very real. At times I felt a strong resemblance to a Frederick Bachman novel. The story would have rated 5 stars had the author left out his efforts to express his own political views. For this reader, it ruined an otherwise lovely and heartwarming story.

Values, love, differences respected
It wasn’t what I expected, kept my interest. A fun read. I liked hearing about how living in an apartment building was like living in a small town
