Matters of the Heart
Impossible to put down, Danielle Steel’s mesmerizing new novel tellls the chilling story of a young woman’s desperate struggle to escape a sociopath who holds her in his thrall. Top photographer Hope Dunne finds serenity behind the lens of a camera—until she’s hired to shoot one of the world’s most celebrated writers. Suddenly, Hope finds it difficult to focus on anything other than Finn O’Neill, who sweeps her off her feet with his boyish charm and devastating good looks. Caught up in their whirlwind romance, Hope offers no resistance when Finn whisks her away to his palatial estate in a magnificent but isolated part of Ireland. And that’s when things begin to go terribly wrong. It starts with cracks in Finn’s stories about his life, followed by outright lies and bouts of jealousy that leave Hope unnerved. How, she wonders, is it possible to be so deeply in love while so deeply in doubt, too? Yet she is. For despite Hope’s fears that Finn is hiding something terrible from her, she’s already trapped in his web…and too dazzled to escape. Matters of the Heart builds to a stunning climax as Hope tries to find the courage to prevail in the face of evil.

I thought this was the worst book ever. She kept repeating herself. It was her 100th book. I think she needs a break. It took me a long time to finish it.Save your money

An easy read
November 05, 2009
This was my first Danielle Steele. It was an easy read and went quickly, but like some of the other reviewers, I wanted to reach my hand in the book and smack Hope (the lead character). Enough already with "but I love him". He wanted to kill you! It was very irritating.
