Representaion Conducive To Books Second Chance
As editor-in-chief of New York’s leading fashion magazine, Fiona Monaghan was utterly content with her life, jetting back and forth between Manhattan and Europe–-until the sweltering day John Anderson strolled into her office. A widower with two daughters, John was as conservative as Fiona was freewheeling, both amused and appalled by her world of high-strung designers, anorexic models, Fendi-stuffed closets, and Sir Winston, her snoring bulldog. But after Fiona impulsively invited John to the Paris couture shows, somewhere between the magic of the runway and the stroll along the Seine, she let him into her heart. And within weeks of their return to New York, John was making friends with Sir Winston-–and Fiona was making room in her closets.It didn’t take long for the dominoes to start falling. First, John introduced Fiona to his hostile daughters and their bloodthirsty Pekingese and snarling housekeeper. Then, after a disastrous dinner party with John’s biggest client, Fiona and John’s relationship began to unravel with alarming speed. What happens next will set Fiona on a journey filled with pain, revelation, and awakening. When she risks everything and returns to Paris alone, an extraordinary series of events begins to unfold. And as the snow falls on the city of light, the curtain will rise on a second act Fiona never saw coming.
In a dazzling tale of modern misadventures and career-crossed relationships, Danielle Steel captures the heady magic of instant attraction, the challenges of change-–and the hope that comes when we dare to do it all over again.

LetdownI'm a fan. Sometimes. I found the characters and the plot to be very childish. It read like a book written by a thirteen year old and what she thought adult relationships and life would be like. Disappointed(c)2004 The main female character marries and finds more than she bargained for. A ready made family that she wasn't ready for nor knew how to handle. Takes you through a roller coaster ride of the simple ups and downs in an everyday life you are not ready for a poisonous setting. I couldn't put the book down because I wanted to know what happens and whether there was a solution. Excellent read.
Danielle Steel is one of my favorite romance authors, this is my second book I have read of hers and I enjoyed it. This is such a good story of a women named Fiona who is scared to get married and said she would never, until one day she met John and things changed. So many obstacles but really good in my opinion
Danielle Steele's Second Chance is a a good romance novel with believable characters; however, I found some of the reactions of characters not to be very realistic. Perhaps that is why I didn't fall in love with them. The story did have some good laughable moments, which always helps to make a book good. The plot is easy to follow and the structure is not hard to understand either, so it provides a simple read.This definitely isn't one of my favorite books, but it's okay for a rainy day if you
I enjoyed this book. It started a bit slow, but quickly picked up. A mature look at a relationship between Fiona, an editor in a huge magazine with a crazy busy lifestyle and John, a widower with 2 daughters. They are opposite. She doesnt want children, he has children and wouldnt mind more with her, he is homely and she is eccentric. They try to make it work and fail. Years after a horrible breakup, they meet again and try for a second chance at love. A mature book that teaches about compromise
Easy-reading. Good story about getting to know yourself and to be brave.
