Another cheating, easy read from DS. I choose these at Christmas, so the season must be officially upon me!
As always, there is repetition, but this book was ok. It was fast enough given I can speed up my audio (thank you Hoopla and my public library).
Sydney was always well taken care of, after a rough trot with her first husband, divorced from him with two young girls, she meets Andrew, an ultra wealthy man with two daughters of his own. These daughters, twins, heavily spoilt with a vindictive nature learned from their mother, hate Sydney with a passion. This hate forms the basis of the novel but does lack gumption, wiht the reasoning being this is learned from their mother. Andrew dies without a will (Likely? I don't think so) which has not been updated since his first marriage.
The twins inherit everything, an extremely wealthy estate and all its belongings. This was sad, but made worse by Sydney refusing to question anything with her legal team. It got to the point where this rolling over by Sydney was repetetive and annoying, and where eyes began to roll.
Sydney was a successful fashion designer in her past life, but gave this up on meeting Andrew, to raise her family, somehitng that in hindsight, she would never do again.
This was standard fare, some lessons were learned, where Sydney put her all into blossoming and finding herself again. Another book ticked off the tbr, and an audio wrapt up in two days. Easy summer reading, and there's nothing wrong with that!

Great review Suz. I have to confess I've never read a Danielle Steele novel. Perhaps I should add one to next year's tbr :)
