Fiction. Literature. Romance. HTML:NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER â?¢ In Danielle Steelâ??s riveting novel, three women raised by their father on a sprawling California ranch now confront difficult truths about their past.
 
Decades ago, after the death of his wife, Texas ranch hand JT Tucker took his three small daughters to California to start a new life. With almost no money, a will of iron, and hard work, he eventually built the biggest ranch in California. But when he dies suddenly at the age of sixty-four, the ranch is inherited by his three daughtersâ??each of them finding it impossible to believe that this larger-than-life figure is gone from their lives.
 
JTâ??s relationship with each daughter was entirely different. Caroline, the youngest and most reserved, was overlooked by her father for her entire life and fled to become a wife, mother, and writer in Marin County. Gemma, his declared favorite, sought out Hollywood glamour and success and became a major television star. Kate, the eldest, stayed at home with her father to do his bidding as a ranch hand, without thanks or praise, forsaking marriage and a family of her own for the love of him.
 
Now, upon JTâ??s death, the paper trail he leaves behind begins to reveal much more than the three sisters ever guessed about who he really was. It will turn their world upside down, and each of them must grapple with a new reality, strengthening their relationships with one another, and discovering who they are now as grown women, in spite of him.
 
Set against the magnificent backdrop of the West and the drama of a family in turmoil, Daddyâ??s Girls is the story of three remarkable women and their unique bond to each otherâ??the daughters of a complex, many-faceted, domineering father who left his

I listened to this book on CD. It was a story of the healing of three daughters with their mother, whom they thought was dead, following the father’s death. ( )

Danielle Steel is one of my favourite authors and I love all her books. This book too was no different!

This book is the story of three sisters who each have a different kind of relationship with their father. Upon his death, the paper trail he leaves behind begins to reveal much more than the three sisters ever guessed about who he really was. It will turn their world upside down, and each of them must grapple with a new reality, strengthening their relationships with one another and discovering who they are now as grown women, in spite of him.

I loved all the characters in the story and how the story focuses on each of them as they face their problems and come out more stronger in the end. ( )

Thank you to NetGalley for this book.

I'm biased but I've loved every Danielle Steel I've read and that's a lot of books so far.

Though it was typical of her books, this book was an enjoyable read all the way through.

I loved Kate, Gemma, and Caroline and their different lives and personalities and how they came together after their father, a rancher, JT died. Both Gemma and Caroline left the ranch that her father and Kate ran since they never got along with their father and even though Gemma was the "Daddy's Girl" she didn't care.

After their father died, they found out so much more about him. The girls always thought that their mother died when they were little but that was not the case. I won't spoil it, but it was a shocker to me. Also pertinent in this book was Juliette, a woman he met but never married who lived on the property. The girls loved her because she never was like a mother figure to them but a friend.

The ending was exactly what I expected from this book and all is well ( )

Danielle Steel has written another awesome read! The novel, Daddy's Girls is about three sisters growing up on a California ranch, which delves into Kate, a daughter's ranch life, Gemma, a television serial star's life, and Caroline, an author's married life, as each daughter follows their own different paths! After their father dies, the three sisters are left to decide what to do with his possessions and estate. What they find out about their father pulls on each sister's heartstrings. How they cope with the news brings about a very entertaining, emotional saga that I thoroughly enjoyed reading!
So glad my library loves carrying Danielle Steel's ebooks that I can borrow and read! This is my honest opinion! ( )

Daddy’s Girls is a light contemporary novel featuring three dissimilar sisters. Each of them had a different relationship with their father who was large and in charge. Their father moved them from Texas when they were all under four to California. JT, their father, eventually came to own 10,000 acres in Santa Ynez Valley, California. Kate loves the ranch and has ideas to improve it, but her father is the one in control. Gemma left at eighteen for Hollywood where she is now the lead actress on a television series. Gemma has a temperament just like JT and has no qualms about sharing her views with him. Caroline loved to read from a young age. She felt that her father did not understand her and ignored her. Caroline could not wait to escape the ranch and find culture in the city. She is happily married with two children of her own and writes young adult novels. They rarely visit despite having their own home on the ranch. With JT’s death, the three sisters must go through their father’s papers and belongings. Papers in the safe send them on a journey. I thought the story contained Danielle Steel’s trademark writing, but I did feel that the story was expected. It is easy to figure out how each sisters story will play out. There was quite a bit of repetition of details. Daddy’s Girls has a lovely feel good ending. I was, though, disappointed with how Caroline’s story turned out. It seemed like a step back for Caroline. Daddy’s Girls is a feel-good novel that was a good break for me from other types of books that I read. Daddy’s Girls is a lovely respite from reality and a relaxing way to spend an afternoon. ( )
