Accident

Was everything just an accident, or perhaps fate? Danielle Steele's Accident is one of Steele's better books. If you want a book you absolutely can't put down, this is the book for you! Accident is a powerful, and yet triumphant novel, of lives that were shattered and changed by one devastating moment. With Page's husband being a business man he is not home a lot but Page Clarke feels blessed with her, what seems to be, happy family and comfortable marriage. They have a house near San Francisco and she keeps busy looking after their seven-year-old son, Andy, and their teenage daughter, Allyson.Allyson, who is fifteen, lies to her mom and instead of going out with her friend Chloe, the girls go out with two older high school boys. But a Saturday night that was supposed to be fun doesn't quite end up that way. Instead, there is an awful "accident" that takes place when their car collides head-on with another car driven by the mayor's wife.At the hospital, Page finds Chloe's divorced father, Trygve. She is unable to locate Brad so her and Trygve lean on each other throughout the the long hours at the Marion hospital. Will Allyson live? Will any of them? Were the teenagers drinking? Using drugs? Who was at fault? And where is her husband? Without Brad by her side Page feels her life start to come apart and at the same time is trying to deal with the fact that her daughter may not live and if she does, she may never be the same again. I read this novel in 5 days; no joke! This novel is impossible to put down. The beginning brought about a relaxing view of Page's life and makes the reader interested in finding out more. Then, all of the sudden, fate occurs and the rest of the story just grabs your heart right away. It leaves you wondering, "What happens next?" and you find yourself not being able to put this novel down. And the end of the novel makes it worth reading even more! I enjoyed reading this book and would even read it again. Steele's character development was once again, great. Every character in her books can be closely related in someway to our own lives. She did an exceptional job getting into the head of Page in Accident. Her character is admired by the reader. She was a very strong character and it played an important role in the other character's lives in the book.Accident has a plot that is definitely believable. A tragic car accident, a marriage gone wrong, the pain of a little boy who feels like his life is falling apart, and the heart ache of a mother who is trying desperately to hold her family, plus her own life, together, makes up a great, touching story. Even the emotions felt in this book were so down to earth and real with today's society. The plot was developed and every situation and circumstance made sense and ended in triumph by the end of the story. I didn't get confused at all and her sentence and word structure made complete sense.Accident was an inspiring novel that shows just how many people are affected by one tragic

Accident is the first Danielle Steel book I read and it was wonderful. It kept me in suspense as to what would happen next. It made me think about how I would feel if I was in Page's place and had to go on wondering if my daughter would live or be disabled for the rest of her life and on top of it to find out that my husband has been cheating. I read this book overnight because I just couldnt put it down. I cant wait to read other DS books. She is great and I hope her other books are as good as Accident.
