About this item

Welcome to Divorce Towers, the Beverly Hills condo where there’s more money than sense…more drama than money…and more heat than one high-rise can hold.

Addison Torres has nothing left to lose in New York: no job, no fiancé, no parents to lean on. So when Uncle Arnie offers her a concierge gig in sunny California, she hops on a plane without looking back.

Before it all came crashing down, Addison had a matchmaking career and handsome partner—then she got a little too cozy with a client. Digging her way out of the wreckage, she’s taken a strict vow of celibacy.

Unfortunately, Addison’s new home is where such promises go to die. As concierge at the luxurious Beekman Towers—nicknamed “Divorce Towers” due to the constant influx of the newly single—she’s in constant demand by Beverly Hills’ most eligible and entitled bachelors. Like Dante, a cocksure talent agent. And Zach, an adorable tech wizard.

Addison Torres thinks she’s ready for anything except love. But in Divorce Towers, the world’s toughest concierge may have finally met her match.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome Fun Funny Sexy Page-Turning Must-Read
Reviewed in the United States on August 3, 2024
This is such an amazing book by such an amazing writer. Graduate by the scruff of the neck right from the first sentence and doesn’t let go to the end. I read the whole book and the weekend. I can’t wait for the Netflix show. I can’t recommend this book highly enough. Ellen Meister is an incredible writer who has crafted a book that is fun, funny, full of unexpected, twists, and turns, makes you root for the good guy and against the bad guy, and it’s a surprisingly deep look at the human condition and the very nature of love.

4.0 out of 5 stars Perfect Fun Read!

Perfect Fun Read! I love reading it is easily my favorite hobby. Anything from research studies to rom-coms, though for pleasure I usually stick to psychological suspense and mystery type thrillers. Sometime though you just want blind entertainment- this book gave me a wonderful afternoon, (my power was out- our first hurricane) filled with antics of the residents of the Divorce Towers.
This book was very well written and had great storylines - it was easy to become invested in each character’s storyline!
Thank you, Ellen Meister for a great afternoon!

Cute enough to finish although the writing seemed forced and a bit stilted. Good for a light read romance book.

5.0 out of 5 stars What Goes on Behind Closed Doors (and Under the Sheets)? Here's your Front Row Seat
Reviewed in the United States on August 28, 2024
We never know what goes on behind closed doors, but in Ellen Meister’s latest novel, DIVORCE TOWERS, you’re in the room where it happens! There is so much flirting, intimacy and sex, you’ll want to light up. Of course, if you’ve read any of Meister’s previous eight novels you already know to expect a great escape with deeply flawed characters whose vulnerabilities are honest and relatable. Think LOVE BOAT meets LOVE AMERICAN STYLE (Google these shows if you’re too young to remember).

It all starts with the young, beautiful Addison Torres, a recently fired New York City matchmaker who needs a fresh start after sleeping with a client and losing her fiancé (oops). As repentance for her poor judgment, she takes a vow of celibacy only to wonder if she can fudge the start date as Dante, her seatmate on a flight to LA, is, well, SO damn hot.

Which is when the story takes off.

Turns out Dante lives in Beekman Towers, a ritzy residence catering to the perennially divorced and is a neighbor of Addison’s Uncle Arnie, a Viagra popping plastic surgeon who loves the ladies (and they love him)! Oh, Lordy. Uncle Arnie got Addison a job working as the building’s new concierge and somehow, she will have to discreetly navigate this hotbed of temptation while keeping a literal “score” card of who hooked up. But her new gig gets off to a rocky start after discovering the crazy demands on her were never listed in her job description and when her own steamy affairs complicate her work/life balance. Uncle Arnie to the rescue? Not this time!

DIVORCE TOWERS is an unpredictable rom.com that is also smart with heart. Readers will feel every ounce of the characters’ insecurities while rooting for them to finally celebrate love and maybe even fidelity. It may not be everyone’s kind of story, but if you love fun, fast paced books that grab you on page one and hold on tight, you will hear the elevator ring and say, I am so getting on.

It wasn't a horrible read but I was very confused on what this book wanted to be in the beginning - thriller, mystery or romance. It did have some really good parts that were interesting but there were some not so good parts that bored me to no end.

The narrator was good and overall, the audiobook wasn't bad. If I had read this book physically, I don't think I would have finished it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Full of Character
Reviewed in the United States on December 2, 2024
I don’t know why I took so long to read this book. It was much different than I had expected, in a good way. The characters are great together and stand alone. There isn’t one I was rooting for more than another. It makes me think about how I judge others and not always realizing they have things going on in their lives none of us can predict.

Reviewed in the United States on August 18, 2024
I didn’t know what to expect when I picked this book up from Amazon First reads, but I was pleasantly surprised. It’s witty and in some parts downright hilarious. I wasn’t expecting this book to follow three major characters: Addison, a recent ex-New Yorker who moves to LA after a bad break up with her ex-fiancée to become a concierge at her great uncle’s condo building, Arnie, Addison’s said great uncle who is a thrice divorced hopeless romantic and would bed anyone who he has just a glimmer of thought could be the next love of his life and Carly, another resident of Divorce Towers who moves to LA after leaving a mentally abusive relationship with her husband and trying to start over with her life.
There were parts of the books that I predicted, but this book was a good fairly quick read.
