Product 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.
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.
With unerring insight and compassion, Danielle Steel tells a compelling story of four sisters who love and laugh, struggle and triumph . . . and are irrevocably woven into the fabric of each other’s lives. Brilliantly blending humor and heartbreak, she delivers a powerful message about the fragility—and the wonder—of life.

Not one of Steel's best....., 2008-08-05
I agree with most of the other reviews on this particular book, however, I am a big Danielle Steel fan and have read every book she has written. The one that got me started was "The Promise". From there, I just kept buying, reading and waiting for the next one to come out. I have already pre-ordered her next two novels.
Anyway, there are good stories and there are bad. (as with every author) The one I was most disappointed with was "Malice", which I thought was completely out of character for Steel and could not understand why she had ever written it. For those of you who think all her writing is the same, take a look at "Malice" and see if it changes your perspective. This will show you that all Danielle Steel books are NOT the same.

Very unbelievable!!, 2008-07-07
This was the second Danielle Steel book I have ever read (the first was a long time ago) and now I remember why I do not read them.
I found Danielle Steel's writing to be very dull and repetitive. I felt as though I were reading the same thing over and over.
As if that weren't bad enough, the storyline was so unbelievable...it centers around a family of perfect sisters, each beautiful but with a different color hair and each with either a high-powered career, fame, or a talent. Tragedy strikes perfect family, but don't worry, more perfect things happen and everyone lives happily ever after.
If you are after a very formulaic read, this is the book for you. If you want a book with an interesting plot and lifelike characters, look elsewhere!

sisters, 2008-07-07
Sisters was a good, not great novel.
You couldn't feel empathy for the characters.
Good for beach reading

GOD BLESS DANIELLE STEEL!!!, 2008-06-09
Why, you ask? Maybe it is because Danielle Steel is the only author out there who can make me sob uncontrollably. As I read this particular book, I had to set it down and call a friend in order to get my emotions back in check. AND NO...I am not the sort of person who cries over every little thing in life! Danielle Steel just has an uncanny ability to tear a hole in your heart and make you feel the emotions that her characters are experiencing. "Sister" gave me a great up and down ride. From tragedies to extreme blessings, this book did not disappoint me.
