Description

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • In Danielle Steel’s riveting novel, three women raised by their father on a sprawling California ranch now confront difficult truths about their past.
 
Decades ago, after the death of his wife, Texas ranch hand JT Tucker took his three small daughters to California to start a new life. With almost no money, a will of iron, and hard work, he eventually built the biggest ranch in California. But when he dies suddenly at the age of sixty-four, the ranch is inherited by his three daughters—each of them finding it impossible to believe that this larger-than-life figure is gone from their lives.
 
JT’s relationship with each daughter was entirely different. Caroline, the youngest and most reserved, was overlooked by her father for her entire life and fled to become a wife, mother, and writer in Marin County. Gemma, his declared favorite, sought out Hollywood glamour and success and became a major television star. Kate, the eldest, stayed at home with her father to do his bidding as a ranch hand, without thanks or praise, forsaking marriage and a family of her own for the love of him.
 
Now, upon JT’s death, the paper trail he leaves behind begins to reveal much more than the three sisters ever guessed about who he really was. It will turn their world upside down, and each of them must grapple with a new reality, strengthening their relationships with one another, and discovering who they are now as grown women, in spite of him.
 
Set against the magnificent backdrop of the West and the drama of a family in turmoil, Daddy’s Girls is the story of three remarkable women and their unique bond to each other—the daughters of a complex, many-faceted, domineering father who left his mark on each of them.

    I really don’t know why I keep purchasing her books. I keep thinking maybe this time it will be different. But generally they are more of the same. I hate to say that but that’s how I feel. I have been reading her books since “The Promise”. I feel that each of her books are very much the same- few name changes and a bit of drama, but mostly filled with people who have money and a couple hardships. I believe this will be the last time I spend money on one of her books.

    All three of the women in this book are 2 dimensional saps stuck in a time warp. Reading this was more boring that 3 months of quarantine.

    I find that DS plots, locations and characters have become redundant. Her continued use of the word slave for one sister grew offensive. When the Father dies, she says the character was "freed from slavery" . Apparently DS has no clue what slavery was. I expected more.
