Q: "Can't join calendar because of an unexpected error "

My wife and I share several calendars within iCloud and have had no problems until recently. All of our current calendars were shared by me and accepted by my wife. She is now trying to share a calendar with me from her iPad and I only receive an email notification to join the calendar (no in app notification which I should also receive) and upon attempting to sign in and join the calendar I receive error message: "Can't join calendar because of an unexpected error." After installing iOS 8 I had to re-sync both our iPads to icloud so that our current shared calendars would properly populate events between our respective iPhones/iPads. That did not resolve this issue with me joining a new shared calendar. I have also gone through all the iCloud calendar troubleshooting steps on Apple's support website. Anyone else seen this error message and have a fix? Thanks!

iPad, iOS 8, iPad Air
