With Julia comes her family, as she and her three sisters are inseparable. Among the four sisters, William experiences a newfound contentment; every moment in their house is filled with loving chaos. But when darkness from William’s past surfaces, the result is a catastrophic family rift that changes their lives for generations. Is the loyalty that once rooted them strong enough to draw them back together when it matters most?An exquisite homage to Louisa May Alcott’s 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.
