Beth Harbison, New York Times bestselling author of The Cookbook Club, has written her strongest novel yet: a story filled with humor, heart and a little bit of snark. This unforgettable story about two very different sisters who must come together and face their past if they can make their future better is perfect for fans of Jennifer Weiner, Sophia Kinsella, and Christina Lauren.

They were two sisters with nothing in common but their parents.

Frances Turner has a confession to make: her sister, Crosby, who has built her life on good luck and good looks, drives her crazy. The woman wakes up in the morning with perfect hair. Men flock to her. And she somehow managed to jump out of the frying pan and into fame, writing a blockbuster novel??and making a zillion bucks??without even trying. And Frances, who has followed every rule, is stuck in pause.

Crosby Turner has a confession as well: Frances locks herself in a miserable little box and Crosby can't understand it. With her fear of the unknown and her "Franic Attacks," her sister is a small-time actress with big-time dreams??and talent??but playing by the rules gets her nowhere. Heck, the closest Frannie gets to famous is as a caterer to the stars. Why can't she break loose and climb out of her rut?

Then fate intervenes, throwing these incompatible siblings together in this sometimes funny, sometimes heartbreaking novel of sisterhood, grown-ups who need to grow up, and the realization that no one in a family is inv… (más)

This is a tale of two sisters who are very different from each ot her. Frances is the younger one, always wanting to be a great actress, but of course the competition is stiff. A great cook, Frances can always find a job that pays her bills in that field. Also, the practical one, not impulsive.

The older sister, Crosby, is the daring one and has honed a mystery story starting from childhood and it became a best seller.

A page turner, family story with two wonderful parents thrown in, I wondered at the beginning if I could finish it. It seemed too light and fluffy but them, a few serious turns made it into a better story. Because of its page turning quality it would make a great beach read or a gift for a friend to read in the hospital.

I have ADHD and I was dismayed at the portrayal of has been movie star who made it big when she was a teen. I thought that her ADD was overdone. I wondered if someone could be that distracted all the time. Either I am in better shape than typical or the actress is not typical. I will let other readers decide.

I did like the way that the sisters were portrayed, but I have had a sister. so you tell me if the relationship was painted realistically. ( )
