First sentence: If she hadn't placed her great-great-grandmother's spinet in that exact spot along the east wall and hadn't set aside time to polish it on this particular April day, Jenny might have avoided any confrontation with this bit of unsavory information.
Description: Jenny, a nice girl from the Midwest, is swept off her feet by a handsome advertising executive and whisked from her small town into the super-charged world of New York City. A control freak, her new husband warns her to beware of strangers and avoid making friends. But Jenny cannot repress her small town upbringing and instinctive innocence, eventually forming relationships with many of quirkly tenants in their brownstone.
