In a New York minute was a laugh-out-loud funny rom-com. It had the meet-cute to beat all meet-cutes. An accidental wardrobe malfunction on the Q train leaves Franny standing there with her bum exposed. A hot stranger in an expensive suit comes to her rescue by offering her his jacket. They part ways never expecting to see each other again, by what can only be dubbed fate, someone caught it all on video, and Franny and Hayes become social media sensations. After a television interview, the two seem destined to run into each other again and again. The storyline follows the developing romance between the two. I absolutely loved all the characters in this book. Lola and Cleo are those girlfriends we all wish we had, they are loyal, honest, and truly care about Franny. Hayes’s business partner Eleanor and his cousin Perrine are the picture-perfect friends that help Hayes grab hold of what he truly desires. There were a few enjoyable steamy scenes, but they were not over the top. They were PG-13 rather than rated R. All in all, this novel had the perfect mix. It had loveable and relatable characters and a sweet plot. Best of all it was set in New York City. The author made the reader feel like they were right there with the characters. If you are in the mood for a sweet and sappy romance, this book would be perfect for you!

A clever, tender, and romantic novel for readers of Christina Lauren, Jasmine Guillory, and Sophie Cousens, this laugh-out-loud debut is a perceptive reminder that fate can have a sense of humor, and that love can happen…In a New York Minute.
Franny Doyle is having the worst day. She’s been laid off from her (admittedly mediocre) job, the subway doors ripped her favorite silk dress to ruins, and now she’s flashed her unmentionables to half of lower Manhattan. On the plus side, a dashing stranger came to her rescue with his (Gucci!) suit jacket. On the not-so-plus side, he can’t get away from her fast enough.
Worse yet? Someone posted their (entirely not) meet-cute online. Suddenly Franny and her knight-in-couture, Hayes Montgomery III, are the newest social media sensation, and all of New York is shipping SubwayQTs.
Only Franny and Hayes couldn’t be a more disastrous match. She’s fanciful, talkative, and creative. He’s serious, shy, and all about numbers. Luckily, in a city of eight million people, they never have to meet again. Yet somehow, Hayes and Franny keep running into each other—and much to their surprise, they enjoy each other’s company. A lot. But when Franny’s whole world is turned upside down (again!), can she find the courage to trust in herself and finally have the life—and love—she’s always wanted?
