Query: Ugh, Boring and repetitive

Reading this book was like reading a soap opera script. Nothing happened, the same events were rehashed over and over and everything is revealed through a secret window the reader has into the thoughts of the characters.The story was weak, the characters far worse and the premise completely ridiculous.Why would any woman, depressed or otherwise, allow their 11-year-old daughter to continue a strange friendship with a strange older man she met on the beach? Implausible. Especially for someone who has lost all her loved ones, to even take the chance with the daughter being lost, insane.Danielle Steel is a terrible writer, that is if she even writes these books anymore.Poor writing, poor editing...what a waste of my time!
