Customer Reviews

Cute love story

I thought this was one of the smaller novels that Danielle Steel was able to actually pull off. Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge fan, it's just that about half of her smaller books aren't worth the reading time. This one though I really enjoyed. I think it was just the overall story & the characters. If you're looking for a quick love story I'd recommend The Gift & Five Days in Paris. Those are both great reads as well.

Special Delivery

People have been telling me that Danielle Steel is one of their most favorite authors. I decided to go to the school library and find a Danielle Steel novel. I chose "Special Delivery." It looked interesting. Their are 3 main characters. Their names are Amanda,Jack, and Matthew. In the beginning of the story Matthew died of a heartattack. Amanda was Matthew's wife. Then as the story goes on Amanda meets Jack while at a party. Later on they start dating. They start making love, and they end up have a child, and by that time they Amanda was 51, and Jack was 60. Jack and Amanda then get married and live happily ever after. After I was done reading this book I was glad I got it because it interested me. Thank-you very much. Sincerely Jessica Marquardt

Short and Sweet

Ms. Steele has captured the essence of love in the later years of life. The story is light reading that ends with your wishing there was a sequel.

A beautifully written love story that you can't put down!

I never read Danielle Steel before in my life, because I thought most of the plots she had in her books were too mushy and boring. God knows what made me interested in this book. The first few chapters go slow, but when Jack and Amanda get together, all the excitment begins. 'Special Delivery' is a very emotional story and is a lot of fun to read if you like love stories. As a seventeen year old girl, I thought, after reading this book, that it is okay to be ages sixty and fifty, and still act twenty years younger. After all, life is short, right? : ) The only annoying fact in this book is that almost everytime Jack and Amanda see each other, they always end up in bed with each other as if the world is going to end within a second. On the other hand, the book is nothing, but a wonderfully cute love story with strong emotion and feelings.
