At twenty-seven, Sienna, Camille, Naomi, Jade, and Harper have everything under control. Successful careers. Carefully planned futures. Strong families. A friendship that has survived university, demanding jobs, heartbreak, promotions, and every bad decision in between. The only thing they no longer trust is romance. So they make a pact. For three years, until they turn thirty, none of them will date. No secret relationships. No returning to an ex. No distractions. They will focus on their careers, protect their friendship, and prove that love is not necessary for a woman to build a complete life. It should have been simple.
One by one, all five women break the pact.
And none of them admits it.
Each believes she is the only traitor.
Soon, flowers are blamed on clients, thoughtful gifts become corporate rewards, family introductions are disguised as business meetings, and respectable men with serious careers are forced to pretend they are consultants, vendors, neighbours, and complete strangers.
The women may be experts in law, architecture, media, business, and technology, but when it comes to hiding love from one another, they are absolutely terrible.
As the three-year deadline approaches, their careers are thriving, their relationships are becoming serious, and the lies are growing impossible to maintain.
Because falling in love was never the real problem.
The real problem was believing they had to hide it.
Fifth Avenue is a clean adult romantic comedy about five successful women, five good men, one impossible promise, and the beautifully ridiculous chaos that follows when friendship, ambition, family, and love all collide.
