Summary: Solid Danielle Steel.
Comment: Leap of Faith is an enjoyable story split between the cosmopolitan France, and down-home Iowa. It is a fast-paced well-written jaunt into the life of a young woman, Marie-Ange.
Her life is turned upside down by a tragic car crash, and she is sent to live with her aunt in Iowa. Unfamiliar with the midwest, Marie-Ange has much to adjust to. Her aunt's eccentricities make life no easier for her.
However, Marie-Ange's story does not end with her upheaval as a child. The story follows her life and the people she meets along the way, good and bad. It becomes an engaging story of a young woman and the trials of her life.
If you enjoy Danielle Steel you will certainly enjoy this book as well. It is well-written, engaging, and interesting. It will leave you guessing, and keep you reading with the roller-coaster ride of a story it offers... Enjoy!

Summary: Modern Day Cinderella Story
Comment: Leap of Faith, a fictional novel written by Danielle Steel, is a compelling example of how a person can succeed in life, regardless of betrayal and hardships. The story vividly describes each character to the extent that the reader is able to feel a part of the situation. When the first chapter approaches to an end, and the storylines turning point comes forward, it becomes a book you will not want to stop reading.
Marie-Ange is the main character, and the novel revolves around her growing up and making it through all of the challenging obstacles she had to overcome by herself. The beginning of the book shows Marie-Ange living with her family in their Chateau de Marmounton in France. Life was perfect. They were an incredibly wealthy family, until something devastating happens and Marie-Ange's life is forced into a whole new direction causing her to leave everything she has ever known behind. She leaves France and moves to Iowa, where her Great-Aunt Carole lives.
The book carries on with how life was like living with Carole, which was far more different from what Marie-Ange was used too. Marie-Ange was fairly miserable due to the way Carole treated her and she had aspirations of someday returning to her family's Chateau de Marmounton to get away. Her dreams didn't seem like a reality given the circumstances she was under, until one day a knock on her front door changed everything.
This knock meant a new life for Marie-Ange, and a chance to live out her dreams of returning to France. Once she went back to France, her life picked up in speed greatly. She met an astonishing man who was prosperous, and coincidentally, lived in her childhood house. They fell in love, got married, and even had two children together. However, her newly found perfect life takes a startling turn. Marie-Ange is forced to find courage and faith to save her life and her children's lives.
Leap of Faith is a true Cinderella story with many more twists. These little changes in the book's plot cause the reader to become more and more involved with what the next page brings. This was a wonderful book that shows that things aren't always what they seem and that good things really do happen to good people in the end.

Summary: Leap of Faith
Comment: Eleven year old Marie-Ange Hawkins had a tragic accident that changed her wonderful life that was in a beautiful French chateau. She had to go live her great-aunt on a farm in Iowa. Marie-Ange was treated poorly by her Aunt Carol. She has to work really hard. She goes to school and meets a red headed boy named Billy Parker. They become best friends. She referred to him as her brother because he was the only one who cared for her. Marie-Ange wants to go back to France so bad, and finally one day a gift comes to her and her dream comes true. When she returns to France, she finds out that where she used to live was a widower named Comte Benard de Beauchamp. After she has met him her life begins. She is so happy until a woman tells her a story that will change her life. Marie-Ange has to work very hard to save her children. The main characters in this book were Marie-Ange Hawkins, Billy Parker, Benard de Beauchamp, and Aunt Carol. My favorite character was Marie-Ange because she was a very strong person. She went through a lot and came out very strong. She never gave up even though she wanted to, she never gave up on the people she loved. I loved this book! I would recommend this book to the ladies that like dramas and love stories. I laughed and cried when I read this book. I loved every bit of it. Danielle Steel is a great author. I recommend some other books I read of hers like, The Promise, The House on Hope Street, and this one.
