Jane was a sweet, funny, chubby seven-year-old, desperately seeking love from her self-obsessed mother, Vivienne, and a father who was wrapped up in a new life with his beautiful young girlfriend. Jane's only friend was handsome, funny, thirty-something Michael. Michael was different; no one else could see him, nor did they believe he existed beyond the realms of Jane's very creative imagination. They would talk from morning until night. As Jane grew older though, the time came for Michael to leave Jane's side. Jane couldn't forget him though. Over twenty years since Michael said goodbye, Jane catches a glimpse of that unforgotten face, her heart pounding, she can't believe it is true - could it really be Michael? This time though Michael isn't just a figment of her imagination. But will the path of true love be a smooth one? And will Jane get her happy ever after? "Sundays at Tiffany's" is a heart-warming romance about a girl who until now has lived her life on the sidelines, about what it feels like to fall in love, a tale of soulmates.

Fabulous romantic magic
I love love love this book. I brought it on a whim as I usually like James Patterson books but what a buy!!! It's nothing like his usual work no violence other than a couple punches, one really satisfying one that'll have you cheering as you read.
It's based on the idea that imaginary childhood friends are real but when you grow too old for them they leave and you forget them except Jane never forgets Michael. Twenty Three years later they stumble upon each other again and love blossoms but can she really have a lasting relationship with a man who is possible an angel?? And will her domineering mother let her?
This book is fabulous I can't sing it's praises highly or loudly enough. It's typical James Patterson book, short chapters and a story that you can't put down. I started this book late saturday night planningto read a couple of chapters having just finished one book and couldn't put it down I'm still paying for the all night reading session!!! There is no murder or crime but it's still great, a lovely book one that still has me smiling about it.
It's a genuinely lovely book. The Perfect book to read with a bottle of wine and a bar of chocolate tucked up in bed or soaking in the bath!!
I really REALLY recommend you buy this book!!
Wonderful read but not the normal Patterson!
If you are a Patterson fan but read the review and think "mmmm, that sounds a bit namby-pamby" then you are no different to me. I was dubious about the story, as it is so unlike anything James patterson has done before. The story focuses on Jane as a child and her imaginary friend Michael. The story fast forwards many years when Jane is re-united with Michael as a "real" person. I had my reservations but must say that although the storyline is slightly out of the ordinary it was a good read. The only downside was that the book was on the short side, otherwise it made a refreshing read for an unusual tale about two peoples lives.

This is the first of James Pattersons romance novels that I have read. I think it is an excellent read. It is told with heartwarming compassion and there are moment to make you laugh and cry. I really enjoyed this book and compared to the 'chick lit' novels I have read in the past this is a grown up tale of soulmates. Well written and heartwarming. A highly recommened read.
