From the woman who brought us Scruples, Dazzle, and Spring Collection comes a provocative new novel, a deeply moving mother-daughter tale set amid the elegance of a famed New York auction house and the glamour of Hollywood.
A mother's secret...
Tessa Kent, exquisite and precocious, gave birth to an illegitimate daughter when she was only fourteen. Her parents raised the infant, Maggie, as their own child, as Tessa went on to become an international movie star. Maggie lives for her glamorous "sister's" infrequent whirlwind visits. But when she accidentally learns the truth, eighteen-year-old Maggie breaks all ties with Tessa and starts to work at the famed Manhattan auction house of Scott & Scott.
A daughter's fury...
Five years later, a life-altering crisis makes Tessa passionately determined to end this estrangement. There's only one way Tessa can reach out to her daughter: a high-stakes auction of the immensely valuable collection of famed jewels lavished on her by her late husband. Tessa promises Scott & Scott the auction on the condition that Maggie and she work closely together on the sale. Tessa's whole future hangs in the balance--for she knows her happiness depends on what may be an impossible reconciliation....

reviewed The Jewels of Tessa Kent on June 19, 2011 The Jewels of Tessa Kent
Oh. My. Soul. This is a fantastic book! It really makes you question the worth of holding grudges and opportunities lost. So hard to put down once you get into it. I did find that the end of the book seemed to be somewhat rushed while other sections followed too much detail, but that is purely a reader's preference.
The story is very involved and it is refreshing to follow the entire life of the character instead of just popping in for a glimpse of a few years or events. Knowing and understanding the thoughts and decisions and then seeing the long-term effects of those decisions is very rewarding. Definitely a fireside book!!
