Romance Huérfana cuando tenía ocho años, Kate Powell creció, junto a Margo y Laura, como una hija más de los Templeton, y juró que nunca les defraudaría. Aguda, inteligente, con una cabeza privilegiada para los números, se ha convertido en una exitosa mujer de negocios obligada a enfrentarse al fracaso profesional y a mirar en su interior solo para darse cuenta de todo lo que se ha perdido en la vida y todo lo que le falta a su corazón. Pero es tiempo de cambio y Kate se incorporará activamente a la tienda de sus hermanas y se enamorará de un atractivo hotelero, Byron DeWitt, un hombre que puede hacer que Kate olvide que dos y dos son cuatro... De entre las tres chicas de la familia Templeton, le toca ahora a Kate protagonizar el segundo volumen de la serie iniciada con Un sueño atrevido, en una romántica historia de amistades, renuncias, nuevos sueños. Y amor. For being the practical one in this series, Kate became self-absorbed, her I am the best lawyer/daughter attitude. Surprised how she wanted to keep the Templetons from knowing the past about her father's stealing when they already knew. The continuing story of running the specialty store was nice, the concern for each other beyond normal. Annie the housekeeper plays a small part this time. Margo becomes pregnant creating home-feelings for Kate to want. Byron is exceptional as rich boyfriend, caring for a skinny non-built type of girl, encouraging her to become healthy and exercising. Would have thought she'd take a leave of absence rather than quit lawyer partnership. The "Dream" series sets you up to meet the Templeton family one by one. In Daring to Dream Margo Sullivan (now Templeton after marrying Josh) dared to give up a life of glamour to own her own second hand shop. In Holding the Dream, it's Kate Powell who takes center stage. If Margo is the sexy one, Kate is the outwardly dowdy accountant, the sexy-behind-the-scenes-but-good-with-numbers one. Orphaned by a childhood tragedy, she joins the Templeton household as the ugly and odd duck; she grows up to be the ambitious accountant striving to pull her weight and forever indebted to the Templetons for their generosity. She is no nonsense and serious and to the letter with everything she does so how it that Kate is accused of embezzling from the firm she wants to make partner? Of course it's a Templeton connection who swoops in to save the day. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
