Child's Play - Danielle Steel

. .

Résumé :

The lessons our children teach us may be the hardest ones of all. In this thought-provoking new novel, Danielle Steel explores how families can evolve and grow in unexpected ways.

Kate Morgan is a senior partner at a prestigious New York law firm. She couldn't be prouder of her three grown children, Tamara, Anthony and Claire. They have all made the most of a good education and have chosen wonderful career paths. A single mother for years after the death of her husband, Kate keeps a tight rein on her family, her career and even her own emotions. But never once has she asked herself if she truly knows her children, or if what she wants for them is really what they want. She is about to find out.

During one hectic summer, each of her children reveals unexpected choices that turn Kate's world upside down. Challenged as a mother and as a successful woman herself, she struggles to keep up with an escalating chain of events. Kate begins to realize that she has a part to play in the chaos, because Kate too has kept secrets from her children.

Sometimes the surprising choices our children make are the right ones . . . better than what we want for them. More often than not, parenting is about letting go of our dreams and embracing theirs.
