From cover:
For Isobel Grant, balancing marraige, children, a rambling old house, and an ambitious business project came naturally. Giles was her partner in love as well as work, and was just as excited as she was by the Arts Center they were building on the grounds of Glendrochatt, his family estate. It was a happy existence, which Isobel wouldn't change for the world.
But the arrival of two newcomers upset everything. One was Isobel's newly divorced and always competitive sister, Lorna Cartwright; the other was Daniel Hoffman, a renowned painter Giles had hired to paint the new theater's backdrops. From the beginning, Lorna seemed determined to place herself at the top of Glendrochatt's casual hierarchy, as well as in Gile's affections. As Lorna's schemes wove themselves into the fabric of daily life, Isobel's close-knit family began to unravel, and reserved Daniel soon offered far more than a disinterested, symapthetic ear. Suddenly Glendrochatt was a minefield of old emtional wounds and battling egos, and Isobel discovered that the peaceful balance she'd once taken for granted was more precarious than she'd ever believed - and that setting it right would take both a steady hand and a faithful heart...
