A happy home is shattered by a child's senseless death. A loving marriage starts to unravel. And a stranger arrives - a young woman who will touch many lives before she moves on. She and a young man will meet and fall in love. Their love, so innocent and full of hope, helps to restore a family's dreams.

Excellent Book
Of all the books Ive read of Danielle Steel this is the best one, the love of the mother who gives the child to someone else. And it tells a haunting and beautiful truth about the unpredictability--and the wonder--of life.
