Customer Reviews

Loved it!

Danielle Steele at her best.

Un puerto Segurisimo

Es super bueno aunque es un poco triste pero tiene unos "twists" super cool

I loved it!

This book was a real page-turner for me. I loved the storyline, and appreciated the fact that the main characters (unlike some of Steel's characters in other works) were genuinely nice people. "The Gift" is my favorite Steel novel; this ranks a very close second.

AN ARTICULATE VOICE

Danielle Steel continually pens stories that thrill and intrigue readers. With each succeeding novel she solidifies and increases her large base of loyal fans. "Safe Harbour" is one more such tale in an already impressive list. Once again, with her 59th saga, Ms. Steele plums the depths of human emotions. Kyf Brewer is an articulate voice for this story of devastating loss and the amazing strength of human hope. At only 11 years of age Pip Mackenzie has seen more than anyone's share of heartache - her father and brother have both been killed in a plane crash. This is a loss from which her mother, Ophelie, cannot seem to recover even enough to care for Pip. Thus the child is left to her own resources. She takes countless strolls along a beach near their home in California. It is there that she meets a friend. Matt Bowles, a painter also come to the beach frequently to paint landscapes. He notices Pip and seems to sense her loneliness, so he volunteers to teach her how to paint. This friendship between Pip and the adult Matt is disdained by Ophelie who doesn't realize that Matt, too, is recovering from a loss in his life. It's been said that love heals all wounds - quite often with Danielle Steel it does, but not before unexpected events threaten new found happiness. Give a listen for a tear and a smile. - Gail Cooke

Finally...something i could sink my teeth into!

I'm a big fan of DS...i plodded through each and every one of her books. This one, finally, was one i could glide through with minimal repetiveness and lots of storyline and good character development. DS...great job...keep up the good work!

Finally!!!

Finally Danielle Steel has written a book that doesn't sound just like all of her others. Sure....same bit of storyline..but much better developed characters and a refreshing twist. Pip is a very sweet 11 yr-old girl who wins the heart of painter Matt. Pip's mother Ophelie was a disturbed mother who had suffered a loss but finds herself again after spending time with Matt. Add Mousse, the dog, and a few other additions and you have the perfect story. The ending was a bit far-fetched but overall, this book is a winner!
