Description
True Colors is New York Times bestselling author Kristin Hannah's most provocative, compelling, and heart-wrenching story yet. With the luminous writing and unforgettable characters that are her trademarks, she tells the story of three sisters whose once-solid world is broken apart by jealousy, betrayal, and the kind of passion that rarely comes along.
The Grey sisters have always been close. After their mother's death, the girls banded together, becoming best friends. Their stern, disapproving father cares less about his children than about his reputation. To Henry Grey, appearances are everything, and years later, he still demands that his daughters reflect his standing in the community.
Winona, the oldest, needs her father's approval most of all. An overweight bookworm who never felt at home on the sprawling horse ranch that has been in her family for three generations, she knows that she doesn't have the qualities her father values. But as the best lawyer in town, she's determined to someday find a way to prove her worth to him.
Aurora, the middle sister, is the family peacemaker. She brokers every dispute and tries to keep them all happy, even as she hides her own secret pain.
Vivi Ann is the undisputed star of the family. A stunningly beautiful dreamer with a heart as big as the ocean in front of her house, she is adored by all who know her. Everything comes easily for Vivi Ann, until a stranger comes to town. . . .
In a matter of moments, everything will change. The Grey sisters will be pitted against one another in ways that none could have imagined. Loyalties will be tested and secrets revealed, and a terrible, shocking crime will shatter both their family and their beloved town.
With breathtaking pace and penetrating emotional insight, True Colors is an unforgettable novel about sisters, rivalry, forgiveness, redemption—and ultimately, what it means to be a family.
Reviews
I owe a friend so very much for giving me my first Kristin Hannah bo
5By remeryrobinsonIt’s hard to get enough of Hannah. I am so fortunate to have never read anything of hers until The Women earlier this year, and I have been captured by the stories. In awe at the writing. And moved at the ways in which she reveals the depth of her understanding of not just relationships, but the dynamics of relationships over years and decades, as effortlessly and as beautifully as she crafts a single image. True Colors is wondrous, and there are still many more to read!Kristin Hannah for the win again!

5By dailybalanceI have loved all of Kristin Hannah’s books. No exception with this book either.Worthy read but predictable
3By BtcfcI have loved Kristina books for the uniqueness, details and character strength she creates. True Colors, however was predictable early on and the story rambled at times. As usual though, her characters evolve with depth and you can feel every emotion. A worthy read just not my favorite Kristin Hannah book.True Colors
