"Heads always turned when Rose McCarthy walked into a room. Nearly six foot tall, she was ramrod straight, and impeccably put together with faultless style, long graceful legs, her snow-white hair cut in a chin-length rounded cap. Her piercing blue eyes missed nothing. She could terrify anyone with a few, well chosen, soft-spoken, eloquent words, or comfort and delight a young employee with generous praise. For twenty-five years, she had been the legendary Editor-in-Chief of Mode Magazine. Gentle, polite, supremely competent, she ran it with an iron hand, with the ultimate grace and discretion. She was known for her excellent judgment, wise decisions that always benefitted the magazine, her dedication and love of fashion"-- When Rose McCarthy’s staff at Mode magazine pitches a cover shoot with Hollywood's hottest young actress, the actress's sizzling affair with a bestselling French author is exposed. The author happens to be Rose's son-in-law. Her daughter Nadia, an interior designer, has been struggling to hold her marriage together, and conceal the truth from their young daughters, her family, and the world. Now the woman is pregnant with Nicolas's child. Nadia’s three sisters close ranks around her. Despite their well-meaning advice, Nadia needs to figure out what she herself thinks, and what to do next. -- adapted from jacket Provided by publisher.
