Belva Plain's Crossroads

I've been a fan of Belva Plain for as long as I can remember and, unlike some other prolific authors, I've found her recent works to be reads which are, for the most part, just as enjoyable as her older books. Crossroads is no exception. While the plot is not elaborate, the first few pages draw you into the lives of the characters. You get a wonderful sense of who they are and can relate to their disappointments, hopes and dreams. This is the story of two young women from different worlds and how their lives come to intersect.

If you're looking for a simple "grass is greener" tale, you'll enjoy Crossroads.
