A coming-out ball is at the crux of this poignant family portrait by bestselling author Danielle Steel. The plot revolves around Olympia Crawford Rubenstein, a successful lawyer and supermom whose family life seems practically perfect until her twin daughters receive an invitation to an exclusive debutante affair. Olympia's current husband is dead-set against it, but her aristocratic ex-husband insists that the twins attend. In addition, the twins themselves are split on the issue--and Olympia's other children have problems of their own. Things reach a climax on the night of the ball, when what was a simple family dispute becomes in many ways a life-changing experience.

What a disappointment this book was,very boring and predictable. The whole novel centers around a coming out party for the oldest daughter of a wealthy family. There are too many good books out there waiting to be read and this is not one of them.
I agree with the previous reviewer. Thank goodness the story doesn't take long to read. It's really pretty stupid, filled with shallow people and really no excitement at all. Just 'fluff' to read, but certainly not a book that I found inspiring.
