This is an historical romance taking place in the 1940s. It's been a while since I've read it so I don't really remember too much about it. If you like Danielle Steel you will like this book.
This story takes place during WWII. It started out pretty good but the male figure is the most selfish man I have ever read about and the female is probably the most disgusting person I have read about. There is nothing romantic about these two as the story progresses. I kept hoping she'd get a spine and dump him but no she put up with the gross selfishness. GRRRR!
Very good book like all of her books.
good story, typical danielle steel

Love,fights,revenge.
Great for those lonely nights.
Debutante Kate Jamison meets dashing pilot Joe Allbright at a society party in New York on the eve of World War II. For both, it is love at first sight. At first, the war keeps Joe and Kate apart, and, after that, their differing ambitions seem to preclude their finding happiness together. But, over the course of three decades, as Joe builds an aviation empire and Kate forges her own life, these two maintain a unique bond and a unique romance--until the day that tragedy strikes. Steele's latest potboiler is set against the backdrop of the mid-20th century's most vibrant historical events.
Great characters WWII setting. The story moves along and keeps you wondering and turn the page to see if the couple will be together for keeps or not.

This is an audio book and it is a story of a love so great that it is truly unconditional, full of sacrifice and compromise, spanning over three decades. Four cassettes approximately 6 hours long.
I got this book in Hardcover so I decided to part with the paperback

This novel tells the story of an extraordinary man,the woman who loved him,and a bond so powerful it could never be broken.It is about finding the courage to let someone you love fly free.
This was probably another great Steele novel, but I had to give up on it about a third of the way through.
I don't really read her stuff. But, I figure a LOT of people do. So! Here it is.
