What this book is about
Margo Sullivan was raised in the Templeton family's Monterey estate as the housekeeper's daughter, best friends with the Templeton children but always aware of the line. After a glamorous but hollow modeling career implodes, she must come home and rebuild—and reckon with Josh Templeton, who has never forgotten her. Daring to Dream opens Roberts's California-set Dream trilogy.
