Summary

A compelling and heartwarming story from international number one bestselling author Danielle Steel. 

Connie and Preston Whittier raised their six children in a once-grand mansion in Manhattan. Even though the children are now adults, the house remains the heart of the family and somewhere they all love to return, particularly in times of stress. 

But when Connie and Preston’s skiing trip in Europe ends in tragedy, the future of the family and their home is called into question. The Whittiers must now learn to move forward while facing their personal challenges. Lyle is successful but has an unhappy marriage. Gloria is a genius on Wall Street, but lonely. Twins Caroline and Charlie work tirelessly on their fashion brand, but have no time to enjoy life and discover who they really are. Benji requires additional support from his home environment. And Annabelle, rebellious teenager and baby of the family, falls in with a bad crowd. 

With the house as a refuge, they all must be true to themselves and come together to support each other in these terrible times.
