Women's Fiction
From the time she moved to New York as a young girl,
desperate to tame her ridiculed southern accent, Charlotte
Anne Byers has struggled to fit in-even while her strong
will makes her clash with everything and everyone around
her. With her mother pursuing a career as an opera singer
and her father returning to Iowa, Charlotte is caught in the
divide between her parents' dreams. She finds a touchstone
in Jenna, a friend who will be by Charlotte's side through
the death of her mother, several failed career moves, even
more failed romances, a detour into alcoholism, and finding
true love. In her lifetime Charlotte finds hope and
disappointment mingled with faith and desperation, laughter
on the heels of weeping, and success assuaging the pain of
the most embarrassing failures-her path both all her own and
instantly familiar.
