Anthony and Cleopatra had their empires. John and Abigail Adams had their letters. Fraces Brawne and John Keats had their poems. Annie Oakley and Frank Butler had their guns. George Burns and Gracie Allen had their vaudeville. Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera had their paintings. What if you could track a year between two New Yorkers through their text messages?

"SEE YOU ON THE TERRACE" is a love story told through the unconventional language of text messages. Follow along with Armistead Booker and Elisa Fuller as they navigate New York City during their first year of getting to know each other and starting to date. It's an epic that starts with a simple text from the terrace of the American Museum of Natural History: "I hope it's not too late, but we are on the terrace. And we've got a sweet treat!"
