"Once upon a time, when her dad married Sage's mom, Daisy was thrilled to get a bright and shiny new sister. But Sage was beautiful and popular, everything Daisy was not, and she made sure Daisy knew it. Sage didn't have Daisy's smarts--she had to go back a grade to enroll in the fancy rich-kid school. So she used her popularity as a weapon, putting Daisy down to elevate herself. After the divorce, the stepsisters' rivalry continued until the final, improbable straw: Daisy married Sage's first love, and Sage fled California. Eighteen years, two kids and one troubled marriage later, Daisy never expects, or wants, to see Sage again. But when the little sister they have in common needs them both, they put aside their differences to care for Cassidy. As long-buried truths are revealed, no one is more surprised than they when friendship blossoms. Their fragile truce is threatened by one careless act that could have devastating consequences. They could turn their backs on each other again...or they could learn to forgive once and for all and finally become true sisters of the heart." --… (mehr)

I like to dive into books without reading much about them and did the same with Susan Mallery's "The Stepsisters". What I thought was a thriller was not. Instead, it was a fabulous book about sisters/step-sisters coming together to take care of one of their own and putting their past differences aside.

I don't have step-sisters but I do have step-parents and this one really hit me with the feels. As a nurse I also understand the bond caregivers can form when handling situations like what the girls were dealing with. The author does a wonderful job of expressing the character's feelings.

This is definitely a book that you won't want to put aside! ( )

If you like your chick-lit was a large dose of drama, characters easily changing their minds from hating to loving, sibling rivalries that disappear when it's convenient for the plot, an evil stepmother, rich people, lots of drinking, and a fairy tale ending - this is the book for you. I hoped it would get better, so that's why I finished it. I didn't like most of the characters because they were unsympathetic and unbelievable - mostly all good or all bad, yet easily switching from one side to the other as the novel progressed. It wasn't for me, but some may like this superficial beach read. ( )

Strong Character Study With Maybe Not Quite Enough Introspection. This is one of those strong women-bonding-as-character-study type books where we get to see three very different women thrown together as a result of a family that blended and then dissolved years ago, and how that blending and dissolution affected all of them and even their common parents (one step father, one stepmother, both of whom combine to be the natural parents of the third sister). As someone who has a cousin that is actually in the exact position of the third sister - both parents having been previously divorced and having kids from those marriages - this was particularly interesting. As with the other Mallery book I've read so far, she does excellent work keeping things mostly realistic, and really my only fault here - potentially intentional, as it is still a realistic scenario - is that one of the three sisters perhaps doesn't look into herself as deeply as the other two do. Ultimately an engaging and satisfying book, this is thus very much recommended. ( )
