Synopsis
They were the best of friends, they were the worst of friends...Lizbet and Cassie are close, yet far apart. After a clueless upbringing (their parents' basic childrearing beliefs: 'play a trombone, see a monkey, get some fresh air'), the two sisters strike out in opposite directions, both desperate to escape...Cassie is skinny, clever, charismatic, successful - every right-thinking girl's worst nightmare. The one flaw in her quality-controlled life may be her marriage - and if there are any other flaws lurking, Cassie has them covered. Lizbet is plumper, plainer, dreamier - more concerned about the design on her coffee cup than whether she can afford her new house. She works reluctantly for "Ladzmag", desperate to make her name as a writer, but stuck writing embarrassing articles on sex. Her one achievement is her relationship with Tim, who thinks she's cute, not stupid for asking why Jesus has a Mexican name. Despite Cassie being the favoured child, she and Lizbet have managed to stay friends. Perhaps because - as Cassie says - they've always wanted different things. But that's about to change. Confronted by challenges that they never asked for, forced apart by mistakes not their own, will Cassie and Lizbet ever realise the real meaning of sisterhood, or will true nature ruin everything?

Paperback. Anna Maxted, Cornerstone. They were the best of friends, they were the worst of friends . Cassie and Lizbet are sisters. They are very different and believe they want different things from life. But just how different are they? Cassie s discovery that she s adopted has fuelled her desire to have a baby the fact that she s having marital problems is an inconvenience she s choosing to ignore. When Lizbet indifferent to children at the best of times falls pregnant by mistake, the sisters relationship is severely compromised. Lizbet, who doesn t know Cassie is adopted, cannot understand why Cassie isn't more pleased for her. Then, Lizbet miscarries and tries to come to terms with the trauma by concentrating on her career. She seems to be okay, but what is left is an overriding resentment towards her sister. And when temptation takes them both away from their homes it is not only their own relationship that is challenged. At war, little do they realise they have more in common than they think. Paperback.
