Hold the Dream

A young woman inherits a business empire in this sequel to A Woman of Substance, book two in the #1 New York Times–bestselling author’s Harte Family Saga.   Nearing retirement, Emma Harte is preparing to leave her retail empire, Harte Enterprises, to her favorite grandchild, Paula McGill Fairley. She has only one request of Paula: “I charge you to hold my dream.”   Now Paula must navigate the cutthroat corporate waters of the business world while steering her course toward the happiness she longs for, and the legacy she herself will build. Emotionally rich and splendidly detailed, this sequel continues the story of the Hartes in magnificent style.   “Few novelists are as consummate as Barbara Taylor Bradford at keeping the reader turning the page.” —The Guardian   “Another instant bestseller.” —The Philadelphia Inquirer
