The first half of this book I read in one day, I could not put it down. I finished the book while holding it in one hand and massaging my husband's back with the other. I liked the story, it's Danielle Steel, so she knows how to tell a story. It is the story of a womand whose huband walks out after 24 years of marriage with no warning, but I think that most women who have had a relationship end can connect with the emotion of the story.

Great summer beach reading!

An interesting novel that reveals a bit about the author's personal experience.

Just imagine that your lovely life as wife and mother--the 24 years of marriage to the only man you've ever loved--ends one evening when your husband tells you he's leaving. The next morning, he's out the door and out of your life. How do you pick up the pieces? This is a book about the path(s) one woman chose. At times very funny, at others quite sad, the story told takes the reader through all the phases of grieving and rebirth in such a woman's life. Really good.

Disappointing end of the book for me. The author rushed the two most important events of the heroine in their telling and yet went into long details of people and things that happened that just weren't all that important. That is why I gave it 2 and 1/2 stars. I usually like her books a lot, although I am not an avid romance reader.

Also, Ms. Steel feels (or at least felt in this book) to be politically correct and an important relationship was a homosexual one. This is the first book of hers that has this type of relationship that I have read. Now, there may be more of them that she written that she has included homosexual as well as heterosexual relationships but it is the first I have read. It added nothing to the plot and just made it seem like a way for her do the right thing. Maybe she wants to appeal to the homosexual reader? Are there lesbian relationships in her other books? I don't know but, as I said, it was gratuitous and obvious that it was. If I were a homosexual, I'd be offended by that.
