Product Description Nineteen-year-old Annabelle Worthington was born into a life of privilege, but everything changed on an April day in 1912, when the sinking of the Titanic changed her family and her world forever. Finding strength within her grief, Annabelle pours herself into volunteer work, igniting a passion for medicine that would shape the course of her life.
But for Annabelle, first love, and a seemingly idyllic marriage, will soon bring grief caused by the secrets of her husband. Betrayed, and pursued by undeserved scandal, Annabelle flees New York for war-ravaged France, hoping to lose herself in a life of service. There, in the heart of the First World War, in a groundbreaking field hospital run by women, Annabelle finds her true calling, studying medicine and saving lives. And when the war ends, Annabelle begins a new life in Paris – now a doctor, a mother, her past almost forgotten... until a fateful meeting opens her heart to the world she had left behind. Finding strength in the most unlikely of friendships, pulling together the broken fragments of her life, Annabelle will return to New York one more time -- this time a changed woman, a woman of substance, infused with life's experience, building a future filled with hope...out of the rich soil of the past.

My DS Opinion December 4, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
After reading this book I wasn't a bit let down. There have only been a few books of Danielle Steel's that I can say that didn't totally take me away but I am happy to say this one did. Her books are based on so many truisms in life and real history. I read for the adventure and to lift my thinking and this book came through for me. Her books are like an old friend..I can always count on them to stir emontions and this one did just that.
A Good Woman by Danielle Steele December 1, 2008 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
When I first started to read this book, I said to my self, "this is just like another one of her books." I kept reading and the more I read the more I enjoyed it. This is one of her better books, she hit just about every subject imaginable, from death, to marrying a gay man to working in a war zone, to going to med school, being raped and coming around full circle to love again. I would recommend this book
