I picked this book up cheap in the local charity shop (as a lot of her books these days are). The book is about with four sisters (Annie, Candy, Sabrina and Tammy) who all come together on the 4th July every year to celebrate. All the sisters are successful (as the majority of women in Danielle Steel's books are) therefore they all live this perfect life. A car accident occurs and their mother is killed instantly. Annie who was in the car with her mother survives but due to her injuries becomes blind, the sisters on learning this decide to live with Annie for a year to help her adjust.
Unfortunately I just couldn't finish the book. I understand that Danielle Steel's book is an escape from reality but there are only so many books about TV producers, lawyers and famous models I could take. If you are familiar with Danielle Steel's books you may well have noticed the repetition of information in this case Annie being an artist and Candy a model. We KNOW THIS twenty times already! To me it shows that she is trying to pad the book out and it got to the point where I felt like I was wasting my time, therefore I stopped reading soon after the sisters moved into the flat in New York. I am almost certain that Annie will find someone lovely to fall in love with and become something other than an artist. This book just didn't do it for me therefore it's one for the charity shop.
