I think this book was written in the 1960s, but I could be wrong. It's about sisters, twins maybe, who go to college in San Francisco, and when one of them decides to marry, they go home to their Central California orange grove ranch to prepare. The wedding causes a rift between the sisters and the one who doesn't marry comes to realize she's attracted to women. It's a story about the family and I remember lots of dusty driving in great old convertibles and the pool at the family ranch. I'm pretty sure it was written by a woman. I've read it, loved it, but can't remember what it's called or who wrote it. Thank you...
