Book description
Mary, Tanya and Zoe had been inseparable in college. But in the
twenty years or more that followed, the three had moved on with their
lives, settled in different cities, and found successful careers and
new roles as mothers and wives. At a sprawling ranch in Wyoming the
three women, each by chance finding themselves alone for a few weeks
one summer, come together and find courage, healing and truth, and
reach out to each other again.
Once they shared everything, but now pretence between them runs
high. Mary, married for twenty-two years to a Manhattan lawyer, masks
the guilt and fear that her husband will never forgive her for their
son's death. Tanya, a singer and rock star, enjoys all the trappings
of fame and success - a mansion in Bel Air, legions of fans, and a
broken heart - for the children she wanted but never had, and the men
who have takehn advantage of her. Zoe has her hands full as single
mother to an adopted two-year-old, and as a doctor at an AIDS clinic
in San Francisco, until unexpected news forces her to re-evaluate both
her future, and her current life.
But their friendship is still a bond they all treasure and share.
For each of the women, a few weeks at the ranch bring healing and
release. In The Ranch, bestselling author Danielle Steel brings
reality to the meaning of friendship, with dramas whose truths we all share.
