Rating: Summary: Life is Hard Sometimes Review: Daphne Fields has just had a terrible accident and is in intensive care. Her loyal friend and secretary is at her side while she is telling the story of Daphne's life. Daphne has had several things happen to her that have been very sad but has always been able to overcome the hurt and go on with her life. She deserves the best life has to offer but somehow she looses the person she loves each time she finds that "once in a lifetime" relationship. The ending to the story is wonderful. I won't spoil it for those who may not have read the 1982 publication by D. Steel.I love her older books more than I do the newer ones. Great love story!
Rating: Summary: excellant Review: I can honestly say have I have read all of Danille Steels books and thay are all excellant.Really they are.
Rating: Summary: wonderful Review: I didn't read the book but I just saw the movie and it was great so I know the book will be even better.
Rating: Summary: wonderful Review: I really did like this book, although i had seen the tv movie before i read the book, and there was a lot of different things going on in the book that i didn't know about. But i would have to say, that this book kind of depressed me, because Daphne kept having people come into her life and then die, But other than that sappy crap, i really liked it

Rating: Summary: Steel has better Review: I think this is a good book in general, just that for D.Steel I have seen much better. Halfways in the story I think it got a little bit slow and it ended very predictable.
Rating: Summary: What strength! Review: It amazes me at the strength DS characters have!! I doubt I could face what they do & live to tell. This is such a great story, gives you inspiration. You will cheer for this woman and wish her happiness...you will be with her on a roller coaster ride. You'll regret when it has to end.

Rating: Summary: Very interesting Review: It is a very interesting book about a courageous woman. I admire, how she fought with her fate. Once I even felt that I am Daphne and everything in this book happens to me. It was really exciting.
Rating: Summary: Once in a Lifetime Review: Once in a Lifetime you read a book that changes the way you look at life and love forever. For me, that book was the Bible, but "Once in a Lifetime" is a close second. The tragic life circumstances which Ms. Steel's characters are forced to endure are not unlike the biblical sufferings of the prophet Job. Except, of course, that Ms. Steel, not the Almighty, is the one devising cruel and unusual experiences for the hapless protagonist. Anyway, I highly recommend this book, especially if you like the Book of Job.
