About this listen

After her parents perish in a tragic accident, Cosima Saverio assumes leadership of her family's haute couture Italian leather brand. While navigating the challenges of running a company at twenty-three, Cosima must also maintain the elegant four-hundred-year-old family palazzo in Venice and care for her younger siblings: Allegra, who survived the tragedy that killed their parents, and Luca, who has a penchant for wild parties, pretty women and poker tables.

Cosima navigates her personal and professional challenges with a wisdom beyond her years, but her success has come at a cost: her needs are always secondary. She's married to the business, and her free time is given to those who rely on her . . . until she meets Olivier Bayard, the founder of France's most successful ready-to-wear handbag company.

But Luca's gambling habit gets out of control and Cosima is forced to make an impossible choice to save him. The palazzo, the family business, or cut Luca loose? Or is there another way to rescue everything she has fought for before it goes up in flames?

Wonderful story

Danielle Steel at her best in this novel. Family story with romance, classic DS. Highly recommended. Strong narration.

Not as good as past books

I have read many and now listened to 2 of Danielle Steel books.
I felt this one was quite boring and very repetitive, not like past books, I do not think having a male narrator works with this type of book. His voice never changed tone unlike other narrators I’ve listened to who put expression into their reading. This is a personnel opinion and others will love it.

My view

Found this book repetitive, boring,long winded, not at all the DS writing I am used to, have been a fan all my life but this has rather dampened my enthusiasm. Have another to read which I sincerely hope is better or that’s me done.

No show only tell

I’m fascinated how much of a story can happen ‘off screen’. Not a sungen scene is described in real time. All is ‘told’ by the narrator. Which leads to me not caring about the character one iota.
