THE GOOD SISTER. Claire Bennet has lost her
job for the second time in as many years due to
downsizing. She doesn't know what she's going to do since
her checking account has almost been stripped bare and her
older brother is always a day late and a dollar short.
With no man in her life, her parents' home is all she has
and she's going to lose that unless she can think of
something quick.
THE GOOD LOVER. Fashionable and trendy
Brooke Dunlap has also been downsized, but she's not
worried because she expects her wealthy boyfriend to
propose any day now. Unfortunately, Randaolph Peterson III
has other plans and dumps her. Now Brooke is left
devastated with no engagement ring, a pile of bills and a
Jag that's in the shop.
THE GOOD WIFE. Lorraine Averhart lost one of
her dearest friends to cancer only months before and with
that friendship, their dream of opening their own florist
shop. But when Lorraine sees the wonderful candles, soaps
and bath gels Claire has created, she pushes them to go
into business together. With Brooke's savvy about what
women want, Claire's products and Lorraine's money,
they're sure to be a hit. They've got nothing to lose, so
why not?
But Lorraine's marriage comes under terrible strain as the
business takes off and a new a temptation appears on the
horizon; Claire becomes involved with one of the most
powerful men in town; and Brooke is forced to reevaluate
what matters most: a fat bank account or love and
belonging somewhere she can call home?
