Not Her Best
Her books are getting more and more unrealistic! And so tired of all these older men being matched with women always way younger than them, why? Just corny and same old story just differs names.

Happiness is a Choice
Danielle Steel posits that happiness is a choice, and Sabrina Brooks is her proof. Deserted by her mother, raised by a cold and distant father, she has become a wildly successful thriller writer. She is content with an insular life, with her dogs and a few close friends. When she is left an English estate by an uncle she didn't know, she travels to see it and put it on the market, but falls in love with it -- and with the charming British lawyer who is handling it. But the course of love isn't always easy, and she must stand on her values and choose happiness in the face of great pain. Steel's narrative style and emotional stories have brought her millions of avid readers, and Happiness will be sure to bring her new fans. #Happiness #NetGalley #SaltMarshAuthorSeries.

Women's Fiction
This is a Slow Moving Romance/Women's Fiction. I loved how real the characters felt to me in this book. This book was not a happy fun romance, but it shows how one event in your life can change you and your life. This book was a crazy and emotional read. I really loved this book, and I could not put it down. There are some things in this book that may upset a reader, so please look into triggers before picking up this book. I received an ARC of this book. This review is my own honest opinion about the book like all my reviews are.

Delightful Read!
Another feel good book from Danielle that includes family or lack thereof, love, relationships and friendships. While I enjoyed this heartwarming story about an Author who writes thrillers, I thought I'd enjoy it more. It read very slow throughout. A genuine nice read. a slight bonus for a Wizard of Oz mention.
