// 一部成長小說，一代女性故事，一場因選擇承諾、秘密和背叛的風暴  //

Tully似乎天生擁有一切——美麗、智慧、野心，然而極少人知道，從小被母親拋棄的她有多麼畏懼孤單，充滿自信的外表下，藏著對歸屬感、對無條件的愛的渴望。
幸好十四歲那年，她遇上溫暖的Kate，讓她體會到什麼是「家」，並發誓永遠是彼此真正的、最好的朋友。
這個諾言從十四歲持續到四十多歲，Tully和Kate互相依靠，即使難免有過嫉妒、憤怒、傷害、憎恨，卻總是會重歸舊好。
直到一次背叛將她們徹底撕裂，這段三十年友誼的終極考驗，才剛剛開始……

《紐約時報》暢銷作家Kristin Hannah的文筆清新溫暖，常細膩刻劃親情、手足、愛情與家庭價值等重要情感，不同年齡層的讀者都能備受感動。
 _______________________

In the turbulent summer of 1974, Kate Mularkey has accepted her place at the bottom of the eighth-grade social food chain. Then, to her amazement, the "coolest girl in the world" moves in across the street and wants to be her friend. Tully Hart seems to have it all---beauty, brains, ambition. On the surface they are as opposite as two people can be: Kate, doomed to be forever uncool, with a loving family who mortifies her at every turn. Tully, steeped in glamour and mystery, but with a secret that is destroying her. They make a pact to be best friends forever; by summer's end they've become TullyandKate. Inseparable.

From the beginning, Tully is desperate to prove her worth to the world. Abandoned by her mother at an early age, she longs to be loved unconditionally. In the glittering, big-hair era of the eighties, she looks to men to fill the void in her soul. But in the buttoned-down nineties, it is television news that captivates her. She will follow her own blind ambition to New York and around the globe, finding fame and success . . . and loneliness.

Kate knows early on that her life will be nothing special. Throughout college, she pretends to be driven by a need for success, but all she really wants is to fall in love and have children and live an ordinary life. In her own quiet way, Kate is as driven as Tully. What she doesn't know is how being a wife and mother will change her . . . how she'll lose sight of who she once was, and what she once wanted. And how much she'll envy her famous best friend. . . .

For thirty years, Tully and Kate buoy each other through life, weathering the storms of friendship---jealousy, anger, hurt, resentment. They think they've survived it all until a single act of betrayal tears them apart . . . and puts their courage and friendship to the ultimate test.
