Up Close and Personal (ePub)

An extraordinary family saga from the "tirelessly inventive and entertaining" #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Sisterhood books (Booklist).

For generations, the Windsors have lived on the family's grand estate in Crestwood, South Carolina, as intertwined with local life as sweet tea and pecan pie. Now, on the anniversary of her daughter Emily's death, Sarabess Windsor believes she may be the last to carry the family name-unless she can find her second daughter, Trinity, who disappeared fifteen years ago. But the town has never forgotten her . . . especially not handsome lawyer Jake Forrest.

Trinity swore never to return to Crestwood. But some ties-to a place, to a past, to the people we once were and dreams we once had-can never be fully broken. And as family secrets are revealed, and desires old and new come to light, Trinity may discover the one thing she never expected to find in Crestwood: a place to call home at last.

"Readers will root for the plucky heroine and her childhood friend Jake . . . The finale's shocking revelations are just that, as Michaels, who was written more than 80 novels, somehow does it again." -Publishers Weekly

Praise for Fern Michaels

"Michaels' Danielle Steel-like fun read has more plot twists than a soap opera, and will keep readers on tenterhooks for the next in the series." -Booklist

"Michaels just keeps getting better and better with each book . . . She never disappoints." -RT Book Reviews
