Together, they will find strength, meet challenges, face life's adventures, endure loss, face stark realities, and open their hearts. In this moving novel, #1 New York Times bestselling author Danielle Steel traces their unforgettable journey--full of tests and trials--as three boys and two girls discover the vital bonds that will last a lifetime. FRIENDS FOREVER Gabby, Billy, Izzie, Andy, and Sean each bursting with their own personality, strikingly different looks and talents, in sports, science, and the arts. Each drawn by the magical spark of connection that happens to the young. At the exclusive Atwood School, on a bright September day, starting in kindergarten they become an inseparable group known to outsiders as the Big Five. In this rarefied world, five families grow closer, and five children bloom beside one another, unaware of the storms gathering around them. As they turn from grade-schoolers to teenagers, seemingly perfect lives are buffeted by unraveling families, unfortunate missteps, and losses and victories great and small. And, one by one, they turn back to the Big Five to regain their footing and their steady course. But as they emerge from Atwood and enter the college years, the way forward is neither safe nor clear. As their lives separate and diverge, the challenges and risks become greater, the losses sharper, and the right paths harder to choose, in a journey of friendship, survival, and love. In what may be her most intricate and emotionally powerful novel yet, Danielle Steel tells a heart-wrenching, ultimately triumphant story that spans decades, weaves together a vivid cast of characters, and captures the challenges we face in life--sometimes, if we're lucky, with a friend forever by our side.

Add a CommentLoved all her books in general but I had a hard time to follow this book. I returned it to library without finishing it. But I will try reading it again. Not up to par I thought. What a great writer and person so dedicated to her family, her children and her books. Geri
I did not like this book.. almost did not finish it, but decided that I should give it a shot. I was very surprised at the story line being SO very unbelievable. I have not read Danielle steel for years, but used to read EVERY one of her books when they came out. This one was a huge disappointment. I had a very difficult time with the writing style as well. I cannot figure out why she chose to begin so many sentences with the word AND.. That really drove me crazy. It was just not a very realistic story and I would not recommend it. Story was a bit over the top. Could so many bad things REALLY happen to one group of friends??? I don't think so and I surely hope not!
True...this book was very depressing!
This was not one of her best! It was a depressing book!
Was surprised at how dark this book was. It did enjoy it.
This book is very sad, but I really liked it for some reason. I think it's well worth the read!
Not her best. Too many main characters and i lost interest in the beginning. She is hit and miss. I loved Legacy, that was her best book. I'd skip this one.
I don't know why I pick up her books. I don't even like them!!!
NO MORE Danielle Steele books for me - I am done with her............Her books are becoming very boring as they repeat the same things over and over and you can predict the endings. There are better authors out there with wonderful story lines that keep you going from beginning to end. She is off my list.......
