A chance encounter with a handsome banker in a jazz bar on New Year's Eve 1938 catapults Wall Street secretary Katey Kontent into the upper echelons of New York society, where she befriends a shy multi-millionaire, an Upper East Side ne'er-do-well, and a single-minded widow.

this is a group of characters that I'm not sure are all that likable. But interesting and a time period I have not read much. bat saying the above I couldn't put it down. have to find more of the author's books.
