Coming Home
"Two sisters ... two very different lives. Alison's American dream is in tatters. Her high-flying career is on the skids, as she is made jobless in the financial meltdown. Her Upper East Side apartment is now way beyond her means and she's far from financially secure. But pride prevents her from telling her family back home just how bad things are. Olivia is fraught trying to juggle family, career and preparations for Christmas, and organise a surprise party for their mother's seventieth birthday. How she envies, and sometimes resents, her sister Alison and her life of excitement and affluence in New York. Coming home is the last thing Alison wants to do, especially now that she's met a rather attractive, sexy, down-to-earth neighbour ... But family ties are strong. Alison and Olivia sort out their differences, the party throws up a few surprises and Christmas brings changes for Alison that she could never have imagined before."--Publisher description.
