Publisher's Summary:
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Danielle Steel comes a heartwarming and inspirational novel about a mother and daughter who face challenges, cope with celebrity, and overcome tragedy while maintaining the outward appearance of
A Perfect Life
The epitome of intelligence, high-powered energy, and grace, Blaise McCarthy is an icon in the world of television news, asking the tough questions and taking on the emotionally charged issues of world affairs and politics with courage and insight. A single mother, she manages her well-ordered career meticulously, always prepared on the air or interviewing world-renowned figures and heads of state. To her audience, Blaise seems to have it all. But privately, and off the set, there is another untold story she has kept hidden for years.
Blaises teenage daughter, Salima, was blinded by Type 1 diabetes in childhood, and her needs have kept her away in a year-round boarding school with full-time medical care and assistance ever since. When Salimas school closes after a tragedy, Salima returns to her mothers New York City apartment, and suddenly they face challenges theyve never had to deal with before, and that Blaise feels ill-equipped to handle. A new caretaker provided by Salimas school creates as many problems as he solves. Handsome, accomplished, thirty-two-year-old Simon Ward, with strong opinions on every topic, questions how mother and daughter view themselves and each other. Simon opens new doors for both of them and refuses to accept Salimas physical limitations. He turns their world upside down, and the three become friends.
Then everything starts to unravel and Blaise cant keep her two worlds separate anymore. A beautiful young anchorwoman is hired at the network; it is no secret that she is being groomed to take Blaises place. Her career as she has known it is threatened, and her previously well-ordered life feels totally out of control. For the first time, Blaises life is not perfect, but real.
In this unforgettable tale, the incomparable Danielle Steel has written a novel that pulsates with emotion and honesty as three people face the truth about themselves. A Perfect Life is about what we do when facades fall away and we can no longer run from the truth.

waste of time and money
Most of time when I write a review I just say wheather it is good or not,
I dont think I will purchase any more danielle steel books these books
are so predictable and boring.I have read all her books with no exception
and they are all the same.While I do like happy endings in books I would
also like some unexpected surprises to keep me interested,I heard once
that she writes 4 or 5 books at once maybe this is the problem
I have read better Danielle Steel books and I have read worse
I have read better Danielle Steel books and I have read worse. It is interesting how someone can be in a routine with their life and then things change and its how you cope with the changes that makes life interesting. When Blaize and Salima are comforted with change they resist it at first and then they start to enjoy the change.Then change happens again, this time it is not good because the teacher wants to try and work things out with a former girlfriend. There are a few chapters in the middle of the book, I just wanted to skip. In fact I read the end of the book to see how it would work out and then I went back to the middle of the book to see how the story would unfold.
