Publisher's Summary

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Danielle Steel comes a powerful novel about a woman running her family’s luxury department store and the wealthy investor who threatens to take it over.

Spencer Brooke always knew she was destined to be CEO of her grandfather’s business—the most respected and luxurious department store in New York City. Brooke’s has been at the center of every happy memory she has, but it hasn’t been an easy journey. Seven years after her father’s death, her life is very different from the days when she walked through the store with her grandfather as a young girl. She may be the owner of Brooke’s, but she’s also now a divorced single mother of twin boys. And with the ever-evolving landscape of the fashion industry comes new challenges for Spencer and the legacy she’s inherited.

Mike Weston is known for making enormous profits by transforming small businesses into bigger, more successful ones. With his marriage at a breaking point and his children grown up, investing is where he thrives—where he can build something greater. And Brooke’s feels like the perfect opportunity. Yet the firm’s beautiful and savvy CEO turns down the offer before they even meet.

Spencer has no interest in outside investors meddling in her family business; her grandfather never saw the need for them, and neither does she. She refuses to be tempted by Mike’s offer, despite her big dreams of expanding the store. But when bad luck strikes, suddenly she is backed into a corner.

In Worthy Opponents, Danielle Steel crafts a thrilling story about a powerful woman—and her equally formidable opponent.

Not her best

Interesting topic but not many surprises. The end was foretold.
It seemed like old Victorian era story which was hard to relate to.

Great Story

I enjoyed listening. It is a great story and one that we all can learn a two from. It teaches patience and determination. it was not like Danielle typical stories. I loved it. It shows when you believe and want something nothing and no one should tell you or make you do otherwise.
Great story, Ms. Steele

Pretty boring

Danielle Steel has always hit the top of the reading list; however, with "Worthy Opponents," she slipped from her high standards. This is my first time reviewing any book, but when the best storyteller, in my opinion, slides away from their brand, I need to add my opinion. Remember, you're the queen of the well-crafted story.
