- Summary:
- Ruth has been single-handedly raising four young daughters and running her family's Indiana farm for eight long years, since her husband, John, fell into a comatose state. She wishes she could trade places with her older sister, June: blonde and beautiful, married to a wealthy doctor, living in a mansion in St. Paul... and a coveted job as one of "the Bettys," the recipe developers who populate General Mills' famous Betty Crocker test kitchens. But June has always been in love with John, and feels Ruth stole him from her. When the two sisters reluctantly reunite after a long estrangement, June's bitterness sets into motion a confrontation that's been years in the making. -- adapted from jacket.
