"Legacy" was beautifully written, combining two stories into one. As much as I enjoyed Brigitte's story of reshaping a life that she suddenly found had changed overnight, I thoroughly enjoyed the background story of Wachiwi, the Sioux ancestor Brigitte discovered she had when doing some research into her family history. The story of Wachiwi was a beautiful one about a strong, determined young girl who made the best of a situation that was out of her control. Her story was far more touching to me than Brigitte's, although Brigitte's story was also enjoyable to read.

I have been a Danielle Steel fan for over twenty years, and I have to say, this is the first time I can remember reading a book that weaved two beautiful stories into one as much as this one did. "Granny Dan" is the closest one I can think of. Steel proved to me yet again why I love her books so much.
