Book Description:
Four sisters, a Manhattan brownstone, and a tumultuous year of loss and courage are at the heart of Danielle Steel's new novel about a remarkable family, a stunning tragedy--and what happens when four very different young women come together under one very lively roof.Members who requested this book also requested:
Candy--it's the only name she needs--is blazing her way through Paris, New York, and Tokyo as fashion's latest international supermodel...
Her sister Tammy has a job producing the most successful hit show on TV, and a home she loves in L.A.'s Hollywood Hills... In New York, oldest sister Sabrina is an ambitious young lawyer, while Annie is an American artist in Florence, living for her art... On one Fourth of July weekend, as they do every year, the four sisters come home to Connecticut for their family's annual gathering. But before the holiday is over, tragedy strikes and their world is utterly changed.
Suddenly, four sisters who have been fervently pursuing success and their own lives--on opposite sides of the world--reunite to share one New York brownstone, to support each other and their father, and to pick up the pieces while one sister struggles to heal her shattered body and soul. Thus begins an unscripted chapter of their lives, as a bustling house is soon filled with eccentric dogs, laughter, tears, friends, men...and the kind of honesty and unconditional love only sisters can provide. But as the four women settle in, they are forced to confront the direction of their respective lives. As the year passes and another July Fourth approaches, a season of grief and change gives way to new beginnings--as a family comes together to share its blessings and a future filled with surprises and, ultimately, hope.

I thought this was run of the mill Danielle Steel fluff. It was a good story, some pain, some mystery, some romance, some happiness; but overall I thought it was rather fluffy; I enjoyed the story but was glad when it was over.

Even the cover art describes the plot well: four diverse women, sisters with the same parents, come together after tragedy sets their family on its heels. They spend a year together that tries their patience, belief systems, and ability to make everyday choices that impact beyond the individual self. The ending is a bit too speedy and perfect, but getting there is a study in what each holds to be important.

very touching story about 4 sisters who lost their mom and take care of their sister that loses her sight in the same car accident that killed their mother. They became closer than what they were and they each discover themselves.Great story.

Not her best work at all. The plot was slow and the ending rushed. In my opinion, her quality of writing is really going down hill. Quick read, finished it in one day. Read for a mental break.

Pamela R. from BAKER, MT wrote on 6/2/2008...First Danielle Steel book I read. I liked the book and it made me cry in a few spots; I am a sensitive person though. The only down fall is that I could predict what was coming next. Overall good easy read just a little predictable. Thanks

Linda R. (I loved this book. I couldn't put it down. Steel makes you feel like you are a part of the family, feeling their pain and their joy. You feel yourself rooting for each one of them in their own personal triumphs and wanting to sympathize with their tragedies. A definite must read.
I loved this book. This was the first Danielle Steel book that I had read. Her characters were great. This book created a new Danielle Steel fan. Can't wait for the DVD!!!
I cried while reading this book. It really showed you the love that these sisters have for each other. I had never read a book by this author, I highly reccomend this book if you need a good cry.
Being one of three sisters, I love to read books about sisters. This book didn't disappoint. Four sisters go through tough times together.
Irene N. (What a wonderful book about 4 sisters. Three of the sisters agree to move in together to help their sister who was blinded in a car accident that took the life of their mom. I loved this book
