As a little girl, Jane has no one. Her mother, the powerful head of a Broadway theater company, has no time for her. She does have one friend-a handsome, comforting, funny man named Michael-but only she can see him.

Years later, Jane is in her thirties and just as alone as ever. Then she meets Michael again-as handsome, smart and perfect as she remembers him to be. But not even Michael knows the reason they've really been reunited.

SUNDAYS AT TIFFANY'S is a love story with an irresistible twist, a novel about the child inside all of us-and the boundary-crossing power of love.

A quick delightful read

I had pretty low expectations of this book based on previous reviews I had read. I was surprised at how quickly I was able to read this tale (under 3 hours), but I was glad that I did. It's a really cute story about an adult woman who runs into her childhood imaginary friend. The imaginary friend is a man who is alive and real in New York while on a break from his day job. The premise is pretty far fetched, but I read it as a modern-day fairy tale and thoroughly enjoyed it. I had never read James Patterson before and I think I may try out some of his other novels now.

Immensely Enjoyed This Book

Despite some of the other reviews on here, I loved this book. The story starts out with Jane being a young, not so attractive little girl who happens to have a mother who is more wrapped up in her own materialistic world, that Jane creates or meets her imaginary friend Michael. Michael cares for Jane very much, talks to her, keeps her company, etc. but of course, is only seen by Jane. The reader soon learns that Michael is more than just "imaginary" but rather a real angel who is assigned to young children, but must leave them once they turn 9 yrs old. And that is what happened for Jane. However, although the children supposedly forget their "guardian angels" who are assigned to them, Jane does not forget Michael. Fast foward 23 years and Michael stumbles across Jane by accident. He has never forgotten her, but assumes she has forgotten him. He follows her around town w/o her knowledge as she goes about her business and her life. The reader begins to see how much Michael has missed Jane. Eventually she catches sight of someone who looks like Michael as she passes a mirror in a hotel. To make a long story short, they hook up again, Michael has not aged, but Jane has. They start to date. Things begin to happen to Michael making him as well as Jane believe that Michael is becoming a mortal vs. an angel. Overall, I loved this story. It was romantic, fantastic in the sense that we know it could never be true, but touching. My only frustration was the authors hinted quite loudly that Jane had a serious medical condition, that was never explained later in the story. The authors built it up in one scene to create anxiety in the reader and to make that part more compelling, and then it was just dropped! Very strange.

Good Sunday afternoon read.

It was a sweet story...perfect for curling up on a raining Sunday afternoon or a lazy day in a hammock. A lot of JP's recent books have been crap, so I didn't have high hopes for this one...especially after reading the book jacket. For those who gave it 0 or 1 star, lighten up!!! Use your imagination. ;)
