Rebecca Serle’s IN FIVE YEARS is a tightly written novel about a twentysomething woman who has everything planned. Yes, Dannie’s five-year plan is locked and loaded. She will make partner at her law firm, marry her boyfriend and live in Gramercy Park. And nothing is going to get in her way.

But then one night Dannie has a dream, and in it there is not the apartment she knows, and she is in bed with a guy she has never seen before. When she looks at a calendar in this dream, she sees it's five years in the future. None of it makes sense. None of it is part of her life plan. What are all these changes to her perfect plan?

Flash forward a few months, and Dannie’s best friend introduces her to the man she is dating --- and it's the guy from the dream. So how does her planned normal dovetail with what is actually going to happen? You have to read to see.

IN FIVE YEARS works so well with clever plotting and writing from Rebecca. I loved her last book, THE DINNER LIST. I love this one even more.
