Purchase options and add-ons

Extraordinary acts of faith and courage unite a family after a tragedy threatened to tear them apart.
At eleven, Pip Mackenzie’s young life has already been touched by tragedy; nine months before, a terrible accident plunged her mother Ophelie into inconsolable grief. But on a chilly July afternoon in San Francisco, Pip meets artist Matt Bowles, who offers to teach the girl to draw – and can’t help but notice her beautiful, lonely mother.
Matt Bowles senses something magical about Pip, who reminds him of his own daughter, before a bitter divorce swept his children halfway across the world. At first, Ophelie is thrown off-balance by her daughter’s new companion – until she realizes how much joy he is bringing into their lives. As Matt confronts unfinished business from his past, and Ophelie is struck by a stunning betrayal, out of the darkness that has shadowed them both comes an unexpected gift of hope.

    Reviewed in India on January 22, 2017

    "It had been remarkable good fortune that brought them together. But it had taken more than luck and happy accidents and even love".
    "It would have been so much easier to never try, to never touch at all, to run away and hide, while protecting old wounds. Instead, they had dared, they had danced, they had trudged on through the dark and the cold, defied the demons, faced the terrors, and refused to run away". ~ Danielle Steele.

    First up, I'll say Safe Harbour is a classy book. I like Danielle Steele as an author now. The story starts with a young child on holiday who has suffered family tragedy who meets with a reclusive painter on a beach who has also suffered personal pain and painter teaches the child learns to paint. It's not about painting though. Each of the adult characters have well-etched out personalities and I liked how there was a twist in the tale towards the third quarter which I won't reveal and be a spoiler. The writing for me is simple and I don't generally like hundreds of complex characters which are so hard to keep track of which puts me off. Basically, it's a nice romance of adults with children and how you've got to be strong and reach out no matter what if you want the prize in the end.
