Fiction. Literature. HTML:

I'll Be There picks up after the tragic death of Bertie Barron, who has entrusted the care of her eight-year old daughter, Nina, to her best friend, the dazzling entertainer Cee Cee Bloom. But life in the Hollywood spotlight never prepared Cee Cee for this role: mother to a little girl she barely knows. Even on the couch of the Tonight show or preparing the biggest act of her career, Cee Cee tries to focus on Nina and her needs, And for a while-eight-years-it all seems to work: career, motherhood, even high-profile romance with a marvelous and unlikely lover. Then, with one devastating discovery, the life that Cee Cee has created with Nina in Hollywood is shattered, and she is forced to come to terms with the profound depth of her commitment to this young girl-now a young woman-who has become so precious to her.

Because no film has been made out of the sequel to Beaches I found it more enjoyable. Not having been spoiled on any plot points, but still with mental pictures of the characters, I could easily imagine the action as a movie unfolding. However, I was frustrated with the focus on Cee Cee’s parenting of Nina, and how the book ran through seven
years showing us only snippets of their lives. More attention could have been paid to Nina’s thoughts and struggles than their search for a school or Cee Cee’s continued attempts to force Michael to acknowledge his daughter.
The writing style is dramatic and soap-opera-ish, and if you thought Beaches was written with screenplay in mind, I’ll Be There definitely is. Unfortunately, (or fortunately depending on your perspective and your personal feelings about Bette Midler) this is one movie that never got made. ( )

The sequel to "Beaches" tells the story of how Cee Cee Bloom lives up to the challenge of raising her best friend's daughter after she died. It's a story of evolution for one woman who learns how to stop being the center of attention and start being a supportive caretaker. She manages to juggle a celebrity life, romance, and motherhood until a sudden revelation brings it all crashing down around her. ( )
