Publisher Description

Best-selling, award-winning author Tracie Peterson infuses her compelling novels with practical faith and courage. In this story of one contemporary family, she deftly weaves together the lives of five very different young women as they face life's tragedies and triumphs. Abandoned by their mother while they were still small children, the Mitchell sisters have always felt the pain of rejection. Their search for love and a sense of worth drives them apart by the time they are adults. But when their mother--now a famous actress--suffers an untimely death, the five reunite for the funeral. There they begin to salvage frayed relationships--held together only by a slender thread. As new trials pass their way, the women struggle to maintain the tenuous bonds of sisterhood and find a reason to go on. Narrator Ruth Ann Phimister holds listeners spellbound as each of the sisters experience the healing power of love and acceptance.

"I really enjoyed this book, although some of the story lines felt a little rushed in their conclusions. (maybe because she was planning a sequel?) I felt that Brooke's story was a little too short and the romance between Connie and her man (don't want to spoil anything!) was a little rushed too. "

    " I read this while at Cozzetta's this past week. I think it was good, to show how siblings (five sisters) can get torn apart and how they could get back together thru the love of their grandmother and each other. "

    " This was the worst book I have read by Peterson. Too wishy-washy. I think she should stick to historical fiction rather than contemporary. This review is rather harsh for me, but don't be mislead, Peterson is one of my favorite authors. "
