William Waters was raised in a tragically quiet home where his parents could hardly bring themselves to love or even look at him. It is thus a comfort when his prowess on the basketball floor secures him a college scholarship, distant from his hometown. Soon after, he meets Julia Padavano, a vibrant and ambitious young lady who astounds William with her admiration for his calm composure. Julia brings her family with her, and the three younger sisters are inseparable from her: Emeline, who patiently tends to the family's needs, Cecelia, the family's artist, and Sylvie, the dreamer who is happiest with her nose in a book and imagines a future different from the traditional route of bride and mother. The Padavanos happily welcome Julia's new beau into their tumultuous, loving home.
However, later on, secrets from William's past come to light, endangering not just Julia's well-thought-out plans for their future but also the sisters' unwavering bond. A disastrous family split that alters their lives for generations is the outcome. When it counts most, can their past bond of devotion be sufficient to bring them back together?
Hello Beautiful is a stunning, very emotional portrayal of what may happen when we decide to love someone not despite who they are, but precisely because of them. It vibrates with kindness.
