A decade of friendship. One moment of betrayal.
Shannon, Melissa, and Amy meet during sorority rush in the 1990s and become instant confidantes. Shannon Fitzpatrick is fiercely ambitious and determined to shatter every glass ceiling in her path. Melissa Harte believes in the fairytale—the soulmate, the sign, the happy ending. Amy Park, grounded and curious, is certain she can have it all: the journalism career, the family, and the life she's imagined.
They share everything: favorite sweaters, late-night confessions, and a sacred blue notebook where they record their wildest dreams. Even as adulthood pulls them into different careers, cities, and loves, they’re certain their friendship can survive anything.
And for years, it does. Through bad decisions and fresh starts, weddings and funerals, they hold each other up as the world shifts beneath them.
But when a long-buried betrayal surfaces, it strikes at the heart of everything they thought they knew about loyalty, forgiveness, and each other. Now the women must confront an impossible question: Can a bond this deep survive the unforgivable?
Set in the decade encompassing the early nineties, the dot-com boom, and the devastation of 9/11, Five Million Moments is a sweeping portrait of female friendship that's perfect for fans of Firefly Lane and Elin Hilderbrand.
