Product Details


Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

The final installment (after Texas Fury ) in Michaels's series about the Coleman clan and its aeronautics and fashion empires opens with family matriarch Billie Coleman Kingsley receiving bad medical news. Meanwhile, Billie's daughter Maggie is ruining her marriage with her total devotion to her husband; another daughter, embittered and weak Susan, searches desperately for love; Maggie's son, Cole, questions his ability to lead his father-in-law's business, while his sister Sawyer forces him to confront the ghosts that haunt him. Through such family crises as death, divorce, birth and tragic accidents, staged in locales ranging from Texas to Japan to Hawaii, the family members struggle to cope with Billie's impending death and to understand her lessons about family, power and love. Readers who are new to the series may have trouble understanding how the characters are linked and why they act as they do, but already indoctrinated fans will find that Michaels provides a satisfying, though somewhat perfunctory, sense of closure.

Product Description

As sizzling and sexy as its predecessors, Texas Sunrise shares the final chapter of the Coleman family, whose lifelong drama of heartbreak and triumph has captivated millions of readers.

Billie Coleman Kingsley, beloved matriarch of the clan and founder of a fabulously successful fashion empire, is dying. As her family gathers together in this time of heartbreak, the indomitable Billie offers new hope to heal the rifts that separate them. Even as her own strength fails, Billie instills courage, fortitude, and her conviction that life goes on after tragedy. From the seductive waters of Hawaii to the rustic splendor of Vermont, from the family’s sprawling Texas ranch, Sunbridge, to the exotic beauty and high-tech glamour of Japan, the Colemans have been driven apart by the passions and betrayals of a new generation. But now, as they deal with the shattering news of Billie’s illness, all the Colemans must transform their lives. --This text refers to the Mass Market Paperback edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars A fitting, tearful but joyous end to the Texas series!, Jul 9 1999
By A Customer
I've read the Texas Trilogy and have reread all three books many times in the past years. I have lent these books to a not-so-avid-reading sister who has since been converted - thanks to the trilogy. I was thrilled to learn of the publication of Texas Sunrise. I bought one as a Christmas gift for my sister. We were bought so touched with this final book and wept over Billie's death like she was our own Grandmam. We would have wanted to send our condolences to Thad and all the Colemans. I will really miss not just Billie but all of them when Ferm Michaels finally puts the series to rest.

5.0 out of 5 stars A brilliant finale!, Dec 28 1999
By Matthew D. Hydeman "voyage" (Tucson, Arizona, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
"If it ain't broke, don't fix it" could have been what a lot of readers of Fern Michaels' TEXAS series said about this "final" novel in her outstanding Coleman family saga. Admittedly, I was a bit skeptical, as I thought the events at the end of TEXAS FURY seemed like an appropriate capper to the whole saga. But Michaels' found a way to draw me back into the lives of the Colemans and their extended family by bringing the series full circle -- with Billie Ames Coleman Kingsley's journey through life slowly coming to an end. From the first teary-eyed moments when the diagnosis is revealed to a resigned and oddly serene Billie, to her beloved husband Thad's steel will in ensuring her last few months are tranquil and peaceful, to her children's resolve to overcome their own obstacles and rally around Billie, this is a novel that could have been summed up in a brief epilogue as a fellow reviewer stated. But consider this -- would we really want something so short, so sketchy? Michaels has invested time and research in fleshing out these characters to where we feel as though they're a part of our family (or us as a part of the Colemans) -- how could we settle for a simple, "Billie died and the Colemans moved on"? Simple -- nobody who is a fan of this series would! Hence TEXAS SUNRISE -- a moving, hopeful and thoroughly entertaining final chapter in the Colemans of Texas.

1.0 out of 5 stars purpose?
What was the point of even writing this book? It was just one very very very long epilogue to the series. Fern Micheals could have done it in 2 pages at the end of the last book. Read more
