Story
Kezia Cooper Hobson, recently widowed, arrives in New York from San Francisco. Determined to make a fresh start, she has just completed the sale of her Pacific Heights home, not to mention her husband's venture capital firm, and in doing so, is also freed from her responsibility as a board member of the company. Bringing with her only a few personal treasures, she is excited to move into the blank slate of a beautiful midtown penthouse, in the city that she has always loved. It is also where her two adult daughters now live.

Story
Oscar-winning actress Ardith Law is a Hollywood icon. Radiant at sixty-two, she is the epitome of glamour and a highly respected artist. But her success has come at a price: she has a strained relationship with her daughter, Morgan, who at thirty-eight still blames Ardith for putting her career before being a mother. Morgan is a successful plastic surgeon in New York City—and the distance from Ardith's Bel Air mansion is not lost on either of them. Ardith became a single mother when Morgan was seven, after her unfaithful husband died in a helicopter accident.

Publisher's Summary
In Danielle Steel's remarkable new novel, one of her most memorable characters comes to terms with unfinished business and long-buried truths as the mother of three very different daughters with three singular fathers.
As a young intern at an art gallery in Paris, Isabelle McAvoy meets Putnam Armstrong, wealthy, gentle, older, and secluded from the world. Isabelle's relationship with Putnam, and her time at his chateau on the Normandy coast, are the stuff of dreams. But it turns real when she becomes pregnant, for she knows that marriage is out of the question.
When Isabelle returns to New York, she enters a new relationship that she hopes will be more stable and traditional. But she soon realizes she has made a terrible mistake and again finds herself a single mother.
With two young daughters and no husband, Isabelle finally and unexpectedly finds happiness and a love that gives her a third child, a baby as happy as her beloved father. And yet, once again, life brings dramatic changes.
The three girls grow up to be very different women, and Isabelle's relationship with each of them is unique. While raising her girls alone, Isabelle also begins building a career as a successful art consultant. Then, one final turn of fate brings a past secret to light, bonds mother and daughters closer, and turns a challenge into a blessing.

Boring
This story seemed to drag on, it was dull and unexciting, I kept asking myself if there was a point to this story. I struggled to finish the book. Not one of the good ones by this author. Would have returned for credit it wasn’t purchased on sale.

It's blah but it's ok
Sometimes a simple story, with nothing extraordinary, no fireworks or super heroes is ok. If you just want to follow a woman and her family through her life experiences, that's that. I don't know if I should call it a feel good story but that's what comes to mind.

I haven't read a Danielle Steel book in decades but needed some "light reading" for a change. I was pleasantly surprised by the depth of the story and the wonderful feeling it left me with. Fantastic performance too!

Better than chicken soup
This book was such a wonderful diversion for me during the past few days of my annoying cold. I was able to just rest and really enjoyed the audible sleep function. I could always go back a bit if I fell asleep while being read to. Again, I must say, better than chicken soup.

Typical Danielle Steel
It was an easy storyline and a nice diversion from Today’s newspaper and TV headlines. Some of the detail was a little fuzzy and too much of it came together too quickly towards the end. The narration was very good. This book is like a good summer read.
