Friends come and go...but there's always one you're stuck with for life.
| This is the story of a friendship that gets off to a funny start. And stays that way for thirty years. C.C. Bloom and hillary whitney are as opposite as two people can be. Oddly enough, they become best friends. |
"...a bicoastal crowd-pleaser, a tenderhearted, two-hanky melodrama... Rita Kempley, Washington Post

Plot Summary
The story of a deep friendship, lasting from childhood to beyond death, between two very different women -- one a poor but ambitious Jewish girl from the Bronx who goes on to become a famous Broadway star, and the other an attractive WASP from a wealthy San Francisco family who starts out with all the advantages in life yet manages to find nothing but disappointment.
