When the concierge of The Alexander, a
historic Atlanta apartment building, invites his fellow
residents to join him for weekly screenings of Downton
Abbey, four very different people find themselves
connecting with the addictive drama, and—even more
unexpectedly—with each other...
Samantha Davis married
young and for the wrong reason: the security of old
Atlanta money—for herself and for her orphaned brother
and sister. She never expected her marriage to be
complicated by love and compromised by a shattering
family betrayal.
Claire Walker is now an empty nester
and struggling author who left her home in the suburbs
for the old world charm of The Alexander, and for a new
and productive life. But she soon wonders if clinging to
old dreams can be more destructive than having no dreams
at all.
And then there's Brooke MacKenzie, a woman in
constant battle with her faithless ex–husband. She's just
starting to realize that it's time to take a deep breath
and come to terms with the fact that her life is not the
fairy tale she thought it would be.
For Samantha,
Claire, Brooke—and Edward, who arranges the weekly
gatherings—it will be a season of surprises as they forge
a bond that will sustain them through some of life's
hardest moments—all of it reflected in the unfolding
drama, comedy, and convergent lives of Downton Abbey.
