What happens after happily-ever-after fades? Can the answer
be found one flight up? India, Abby, Esme, and Monique have
all been friends since their days at Manhattan’s Sibley
School for Girls. From the outside, these four women—all
grown up now—seem to be living ideal lives, yet each finds
herself suddenly craving more. India Chumley is a whip-smart
divorce lawyer who routinely declines the marriage proposals
of her charming French boyfriend, Julien. She’s taking the
first plunge by moving in with him, but she’s keeping her
own apartment—and keeping it a secret from him. Abby
Rosenfeld Adams is an irrepressibly upbeat gallery owner who
married her WASP college sweet heart, a passionate but
tormented sculptor. When she suspects he is cheating on her,
she realizes that perhaps there’s more to life than
reassuring her husband of his artistic brilliance.Esme
Sarmiento Talbot is a Colombian Scarlett O’Hara, bored with
her proper Connecticut life and her tame, all-American
husband. In order to satisfy her sensuality, she escapes to
Manhattan and distracts herself with casual encounters. A
card-carrying member of Harlem’s thriving buppie-ocracy and
a successful gynecologist, Monique Dawkins-Dubois is married
to a powerful but dull financier who barely notices her
anymore. When an attractive coworker beckons, Monique can’t
help but be flattered.The most straitlaced of them all,
India is dismayed by her friends’ illicit activities. That
is, until her ex-fiancé, the love of her life and the
destroyer of her heart, reappears in New York— and she finds
herself caught between the dependable man she thought was
her future and the man she never quite let go of. Dazzling
and sexy, One Flight Up is an irresistible comedic romp
through the boardrooms, bedrooms, and ballrooms of Manhattan
and Paris.
