About this ebook

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

Ginny Carter was once a rising star in TV news, married to a top anchorman, with a three-year-old son and a full and happy life in Beverly Hills—until her whole world dissolved in a single instant on the freeway two days before Christmas. In the aftermath, she pieces her life back together and tries to find meaning in her existence as a human rights worker in the worst areas around the globe.
 
Then, on the anniversary of the fateful accident—and wrestling with the lure of death herself—she meets a boy who will cause her life to change forever yet again. Thirteen-year-old Blue Williams has been living on the streets, abandoned by his family, rarely attending school, and utterly alone. Following her instincts, Ginny reaches out to him. Leery of everyone, he runs from her again and again. But he always returns, and each time, their friendship grows.
 
Blue glows with outsized spirit and an irresistible mix of innocence and wisdom beyond his years. Ginny offers him respect as they form an unusual bond and become the family they each lost. But just as Blue is truly beginning to trust her, she learns of a shocking betrayal that he has been hiding. Is it a wound too deep to heal, or will she be able to fight the battle that will make them both whole again?
 
Blue is #1 New York Times bestselling author Danielle Steel at her finest, a probing and emotionally gripping story of dark secrets revealed, second chances, and the power of love and courage to overcome life’s greatest challenges.

Ratings and reviews

Emotional Rollercoaster of True Life This story could have happened. It is an emotional rollercoaster that will tear at your heart and then heal it. Our heroine had her life demolished and now works in the worst refugee camps in global hotspots. Our famous author is so very good at getting to the heart of the matter, no matter how tough. And this book deals with some tough situations. But she also emphasizes the high points and leaves you with hope and joy in the end. I highly recommend this book.

I absolutely loved this story. So we'll written and a wonderful plot. It shows that even from the lowest parts in your life, good can always come of bad 💟 thanks for the wonderful read!

I thought the book was amazing. I felt so sorry for the women who lost her family, but in the end it was beautiful. Love it that she found the boy & helped him.
