One thing that shows this authors irrefutable skill as a writer is that fact that all three of these women have very diverse characteristics and differing personalities, and it is very clear that Paige is the organizer of the three, Eva the glass half full, romanticist, and Frankie the blunt and down to earth one of the group, but you can also feel the great love and depth of friendship they have for each other as well. Paige, Eva and Frankie have been friends since childhood, and now live in a converted Brownstone together, with Paige’s brother Matt filling the last apartment. Sleepless in Manhattan grabbed me from the get-go, and it is the start of a series that I just know is going to get better with each and every book added. I’m still relatively a new reader of this authors work, but knowing she has over seventy published books, a large number of which I have still too read makes me a happy girl. I think if I met Sarah Morgan, I’d give her a hug and thank her profusely for being a writer, while gibbering nonsensical words and phrases about how much I love her books. Sarah Morgan's From Manhattan with Love series includes the following installments as of December 2016:ĥ - "Sometimes you just have to take that leap." Stars! Can we watch Sleepless in Seattle?” “Not unless the reason they're sleepless is because there's a serial killer on the loose.” Unless you want to wake up and find me shivering in your bed because I'm too scared to sleep alone, you'd better pick something else. “Silence of the Lambs, or maybe some Stephen King-” “No way!” Eva recoiled. “Can we watch something romantic for a change?” “I was thinking horror.” Matt typed a reply to one of his emails. I did very much enjoy Sleepless in Manhattan and am excited to continue on to #2.and yes, probably #3 (again :P). It's a steamy but humorous romance, so superficial is sometimes allowed and happily overlooked. Given the complicated characters, I felt that they were still portrayed fairly superficially but I can recognize that this is not intended to be a literary fiction nor a boring case study. This is a friends to lovers romance, but as you can see, it's not that simple. The heroine has been in significant medical treatment the majority of her life which caused her character to have some interesting complexities. The hero is plagued by a dysfunctional perception of relationships due to poor modeling on his parents' part. Sleepless in Manhattan wasn't quite as enjoyable as #3 in my personal opinion, but it was a solid contemporary romance with surprising layers. Afterwards, I found the first two installments and quickly got started. I loved #3 which was themed perfectly for the holiday time in which I read it. I started this series with installment #3 because this is the type of series that allows you to do that.
