There are a few books that you can connect yourself to not even knowing why. This was one such book for me. I remember reading it while traveling and though the beauty outside was so alluring, I could not bring myself to stop reading this book. you have to read it to understand what I am trying to say. =)
It was so sad and cute! i nvr really thought the author would kill both serena and brad, tht wa soo sad and omg! i just loced it like hell!!!

This was the first real romance novel I read as a teenager and after that I was hooked. I lost my copy when I married and moved to my new home, but I was in a bookstore one day and there it was. It was like finding an old friend. I have read it several times and if you have seen it, well you know how long it is. I even watched the made for tv movie, not as great as the book.
It may sound awful now, but when I was a teenager I kind of adored this book. I have a few similar traits with the main character (minus the tragic bits) and at that time it seemed wildly romantic to relate to a story like this. So sue me, but I still have a soft spot for this book, even if I don't really want to read it again.
I loved the book:))
Well Researched and showing a new side of love, it was a classic book:D
Danielle Steel has beautifully projected two generations of women in a family. Though I was not completely satisfied with the ending and was planning on getting more, the book was still a wonderful read.
Well Recommended:)

I thought this book was very similar to Kaleidoscope. Soldier in WWII meets foreign wife. Tragic things happen and wife gets murdered. Kids are messed up and grow up apart. Very similar. Don't get me wrongs, I liked the story and it kept me reading, it was just similar to the other one. It was a shame that Serena had to die.
As always, a very nicely written love story. There was a big selection of characters, yet I was able to understand how they think. However, am not a huge fan of the last chapter where she went got involved with the brother of the man who killed her mom.
I realize that I am right when I wrote that Danielle Steel's older novels are the only novels of hers worth reading.
This book was published in 1983.
This book is as complex as Zoya or Daddy. This is the book that Danielle Steel should write.

the very first danielle steel that i finished reading.. this was a great novel and i'm scavenging bookstores to have my own copy of this but i can't find one!!! i read this back when i was still in highschool and that was more than 10 years ago!
I hate to admit it, but this book i absolutely loved! I read it over and over and over again. It's a long story with many plots, i adored all the characters and it really played my emotions.
Call me lame, but i love this book :D

I gave this a five star because its one of those books that i loved as a young adult - apologies to Mrs Hartmann - my standard eight English teacher. As an afternoon curled up on the couch reading material it deserves a five star.
One of the most amazing books I've read.. and I've read alot!! It captures your heart literally! Who ever loves storys like this should read it!! I assure you to cry till you finish this :)
I read this book a long time ago, and til this day I still remember it, it was such a touching and moving novel, I think this book was the best novel written by Danielle Steel
Could have sworn i already reviewed this but don't see it here. Completely unbelievable but sometimes you just need a good romance. I still managed to be surprised towards the end.
I consider it as the most enticing novel Danielle has written, it for reader of all ages and it can very well change your view on life.
This has to be best book ive ever read by far.
it made me laugh and cry all the time, addictive too.
i would recommend it to everyone

This was made into a TV movie too....enjoyed as well...heck, there isnt a DS book I dont like.
My favorite Danielle Steel book. I love her older books, when it's not just a love story, but a life story.
Absolutely one of the best. Can't wait to read my newly bought novel written by D. Steel :)
It would've been an honor to meet a real princess, Principessa Serena Alessandra Graziella di San Tibaldo :)
The history was good but the ending was too quick: almost like the author was tired.
I 've read this book a long time ago and I can read it again gladly,loved it
Ms Steel's older books are her best, and Remembrance, my favourite.
This has been my one of my favorites from this talented author
Enjoy as much as i compare it to Jude Deveraux remembrance.

Since 1981, Ms. Steel has been a permanent fixture on the New York Times hardcover and paperback bestseller lists. In 1989, she was listed in the Guinness Book of World Records for having at least one of her books on the Times bestseller list for 381 consecutive weeks. But Guinness was premature. The fact is that one or more of Ms. Steel's novels have been on the New York Times bestseller list for...more
