William Waters grew up in a house silenced by tragedy, where his parents could hardly bear to look at him, much less love himso when he meets the spirited and ambitious Julia Padavano in his freshman year of college, its as if the world has lit up around him. With Julia comes her family, as she and her three sisters are inseparable: Sylvie, the familys dreamer, is happiest with her nose in a book; Cecelia is a free-spirited artist; and Emeline patiently takes care of them all. With the Padavanos, William experiences a newfound contentment; every moment in their house is filled with loving chaos.
But then darkness from Williams past surfaces, jeopardizing not only Julias carefully orchestrated plans for their future, but the sisters unshakeable devotion to one another. The result is a catastrophic family rift that changes their lives for generations. Will the loyalty that once rooted them be strong enough to draw them back together when it matters most?
An exquisite homage to Louisa May Alcotts timeless classic, Little Women, Hello Beautiful is a profoundly moving portrait of what is possible when we choose to love someone not in spite of who they are, but because of it.
