I noticed something when reading this book that made me smile. All of the writing manuals, classes, and guides always say “Show, don’t tell. Don’t just tell the story. Show it in dialogue. ” Well, I would say 75% of this story is telling, not showing, but it doesn’t matter. It’s captivating, compelling, and moving. The characters are believable and I connected with them immediately. It completely works. And it made me realize that most or all of the books that I’ve read by Ms. Steel have been written this way. That old adage that “rules are made to be broken” stands true here. This style works for Danielle Steel, as many millions of her readers will attest. It is a good lesson for writers to remember. If you want to write in a way that may break a few rules, and it works for you, go for it. Fans of romantic thrillers and of Danielle Steel will greatly enjoy this one.

Their attraction is instant but soon danger is lurking in the shadows ready to pounce on both of them. I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.*** A dedicated CIA agent becomes an unexpected ally to a woman haunted by the kidnapping of her family, in this thrilling novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Danielle Steel. Suspects by Danielle Steel is an emotional story about a woman who lost her husband and son in a kidnapping gone wrong. But, one year later and the kidnappers still have not been caught, and she’s in as much danger as she was before. In addition to that, here is another Danielle book that heavily features the city of Paris, one of my favorite places and, I suspect, one of Danielle Steel’s as well since she lives there part of the time. I have always loved any book that she sets in Paris and her descriptions of the city and everything going on there makes me feel like I’m standing right there at the bottom of the Eiffel Tower myself.

I personally can never seem to get enough of Danielle Steel’s books. This one is another solid read that I wouldn’t want to miss. I highly recommend it.This author loves to write about the passionate and infatuation stages of relationships, and having just read a non ficiton about relationships neeeding good old fashioned and mature hard work, I can't help but reflect on the unrealistic portion of the fairytale relationships she portrays. Also, a strong woman always rolling over and accepting bad treatment from the men in their life. I instantly loved the main character Theodora Morgan. As is not unusual for Danielle Steel, she creates female characters who are strong women who handle crises in their lives with grace and dignity. And that was certainly the case with Theodora Morgan. Although she had some heartbreaking tragedies in her life, she remained brave and strong and found a reason to continue living. I haven't read a Danielle Steel book in years and when I saw this one available to read early, I jumped at the chance. I thoroughly enjoyed Suspects and was pleasantly surprised at the suspenseful story of the book. The book centers around Theo Morgan, a very well known retail fashion designer. She sets up pop-up shops all over and sells the most sought after fashion designs. She is extremely successful, but has to overcome a terrible tragedy. One year ago as the book starts, Theo's husband and 13 year old son were kidnapped. There was a ransom demand that Theo could easily have paid, but the authorities wanted more time to try to solve the case. It ended in tragedy with the kidnappers killing her husband and son. Theo was and still is devastated as the book begins. She's basically been a hermit for an entire year, not feeling confident enough to go out. She's been running her business remotely and now she's also running her husband's business. She lives in Paris, but travels to New York, Los Angeles, Texas, etc setting up her pop-up shops for short periods. Did you know this about Danielle Steel?
