Summary: Good book with good plot but disappointing ending.
Comment: I really enjoyed reading this nearly 400-page book. It took me two days to read all of it, but I think that it was well worth my time.
This book was very sad and emotional for me to read, but I really felt for Alex Parker, the protagonist in this story. Her mean husband, Sam, goes on a high-fledged affair with lots of intimate "doing-it" when his wife is suffering from chemotherapy/mastectomy.
I hated the ending, Sam should have gone to prison instead of probation, and I think she should have went & married Brock, who was no doubt my favorite character here. Brock was the nice one, caring for Alex while she was sick, but in the end, Alex went back to that no good cheating lunatic Sam, while she left Brock to go back to Illinois. Bad ending.

Summary: Give me a break!
Comment: Alexandra Parker is battling breast cancer and her husband, Sam, is being a real jerk because he can't deal with her illness. His mother died of cancer and he just can't face the trials and tribulations his wife has to go through to conquer her illness. I don't know what Danielle Steel was thinking when she wrote this book, but the characther of Alexandra should not have taken her husband back after his terrible treatment of her immediately after she was diagnosed. And then he has an affair to boot with a self-centered, social climbing twit. While cancer is very hard on family members, and some spouses cannot cope, I feel that Ms. Steel took this to the extreme... and some of the scenarios just happened much to quickly after Alexandra was diagnosed.

Summary: Don't waste your time with this one!
Comment: The characters are shallow and the ending is just awful. If you like Danielle Steel read Granny Dan or Zoya instead. They are much much better than this ridiculous farce of a book
