Summary: Major snooze
Review: I've only read a few of Danielle Steel's books and some, like The Gift, I've liked and others, like this one, I thought were terrible.This book breaks a cardinal rule of romance novel writing. It gives us an unlikable hero. Joe is a first class jerk. And that's one of the cleaner terms I use to describe him. He can't commit to Kate and she finally leaves him. She marries Andy and has a baby. That's when Joe waltzes back into her life and busts up her marriage. When she finally gets her divorce and marries Joe he let's her know in no uncertain terms that he does not want children. When she gets pregnant he treats her horribly.When she gets into a car accident and loses the twins she's carrying, Andy is the one in the hospital with her. Joe is nowhere to be found. Despite her depression over losing the babies he let's her know he does not want her getting pregnant again. He constantly leaves her alone while building up his company and when she complains he gets mad at her. He doesn't even try to meet her halfway. He basically tells her to live with it. The reader has to have some idea of what motivates the hero and heroine to act the way that they do during the course of the story and we have no idea why Joe treats the supposed "love of his life" the way that he does. He's happier with his planes. Kate should have left him to them. I can understand how hard it is to be without the person that you love, but Kate should have learned to love herself just a little bit more. She put up with Joe's crap for years and I found it very irritating. And I agree with a number of the other reviews that DS repeats things over and over. I've noticed that in her other books.

Summary: A great read for Steel fans
Review: I've read every book Danielle Steel's written and have only been dissapointed a time or two. Lone Eagle is one of my favorites. I read it during a difficult time in my marriage and it really helped me through. In typical Steel style, it is somewhat predictably romantic, but true fans won't be dissapointed.
