In Danielle Steels dazzling new novel, a young woman must overcome tremendous adversity in her quest to find herself and achieve real happiness. Nicole Coco Martin is destined to have it all. As the only child of doting and successful parents, she has been given every opportunity in life. Having inherited her mothers stunning beauty and creativity, along with her fathers work ethic and diligence, she has the world at her feet. Her graduation from Columbia is fast approaching, and with it the summer job of her dreams working at a magazine. Between work, leisurely weekends at her familys home in Southampton, and spending as much time as possible with her best friend, Sam, life couldnt be betteruntil tragedy strikes. Cocos beloved parents are killed in a terrorist attack while on vacation in France. Now devastated and alone, Coco must find a way to move forward and make her way in the world without the family she loved. Determined to forge her own path and make her parents proud, Coco pursues her dreams, dazzled by exciting opportunities that come her way. Her goals are to think outside the boxand always play by her own rules. As she finds herself drawn to charismatic, fascinating men, each relationship will teach Coco new lessons, some delightful, some painful. She will come to realize what matters, and how strong she truly isand in the end, she will discover herself. Richly exploring one womans poignant journey through life, All That Glitters is a compelling tale of challenges, heartbreak, discovery, and triumph, a powerful reminder that all that glitters is not the essence of life. And what is truly worth having was right there in our hands all along.
