Booklist Review

Diandra and Gregory are summoned by Bart, the head of the department stores their families have owned for generations. Both want to run the new San Francisco store, so they are rivals. Diandra's mother and Gregory's father died in an accident years before, revealing an affair devastating to both families. Bart orders them to clear out the family townhouse in Boston. Full of resentment, they are dazzled by the sight of a beautiful diamond-and-emerald necklace. While Diandra wears it, their anger eases and romance stirs, even as more family secrets come to light. Diandra and Greg are appealing and sympathetic as passionate, career-driven people dealing with painful memories, and their ardor sparkles as brightly as that precious necklace in this fun vintage title by the ever-popular Delinsky.--Amy Alessio Copyright 2018 Booklist
