Life’s not like the movies . . . or is it? An avid knitter and manager of a yarn store in New York City, Caitlyn finds herself at loose ends after getting dumped by her long-time, live-in boyfriend. What better way to move on than to find a man like the old-school movie stars that she dreams about? But her first attempt at online dating is a disaster. Especially when the date turns out to be the new renter of a room in her apartment. Wall Street powerhouse Ben needs a place to crash while his condo is being renovated. Love is the last thing on his mind since he’s just getting over a breakup. But he can’t resist a challenge, especially one like his prim and proper new roommate. A do-gooder with a heart of gold, Caitlyn is spearheading a fight to save an old theater, while Ben is working for the developer trying to tear it down. Sparks will fly, but they may not be enough to ignite big-screen romance . . .

Delightful first book in this series about a group of friends and their love for old movies - and The Ellen, a movie theater from the Golden Age that's practically a character in its own right.
I fell in love with Caitlyn pretty much from the start, siding with her against uber-jerk Ben... who turned out to be our romantic hero?!
Kudos to Maggie Dallen to pull that one off - I was really surprised when I actually fell in love with Ben, too. Eventually. :)
I especially loved Caitlyn's tight-knit gorup of friends, and am looking very much forward to reading their stories, too. :)
