Upside Down by Danielle Steel – Book

You don't need to follow the rules to find the path to happiness...

Oscar winning actress, Ardith Law, is a Hollywood icon. A stunning beauty at sixty-two, her star is as bright as ever. Widowed at a young age by a philandering husband, Ardith is in no hurry to marry again. Her daughter, Morgan, a successful cosmetic surgeon in New York, has always blamed her mother for a lonely childhood while Ardith was away on location and the relationship remains strained despite Ardith's determination to strengthen their bond.

While Ardith's longtime partner is away filming in London, Josh Gray, a younger actor waiting for his big break, is employed as Ardith's assistant at her Bel Air home and when tragedy strikes, he becomes an invaluable support as she comes to terms with loss.

Morgan has never had time for relationships as her career took all her time and energy. But when she meets Ben Ryan, one of the country's most famous TV news reporters, even aware of his reputation for womanising, she falls headlong for his charm and attention despite the years that separate them.

When Ben faces a serious allegation, it's time for Morgan to decide whether she can trust him and bury the hurt of the past and forgive. And it's time for Ardith to choose her path to true happiness. . .
