Living in MN I always enjoy a good book in New York City because it always gives me a glimpse of what big city life is like and this book has all of that.This is a dynamic list and may never be able to satisfy particular standards for completeness. The ending was a little too easy for me, and I had a feeling it was coming. While I didn't think the book was spectacular it still had some fine points.

Iris begins panicking and doesn't know whether her new relationship with Steve is appropriate since he's already married. Meanwhile Iris is forming somewhat of a friendship with Vickie who she couldn't initially stand, and realizing that her best friend Val is more selfish than she had thought. Steve chats Iris up and pretty soon they are friends and then perhaps a little bit more than friends (cue the sexy music). In an attempt to find out if he is cheating Iris accidentally bumps into him numerous times, and although each time was meant to be a funny chance meeting they weren't that hilarious where I would laugh out loud. Iris, since she's out of work already, agrees to spy on Vickie's husband Steve for a small fee, and then the funny shenanigans begin. In a chance meeting she runs into her best friend Val's twin sister Vickie who suspects her husband is cheating on her. Iris is in trouble, she's getting divorced, she just lost her job and she's living in New York City, which is not exactly the cheapest city to live in.
