The only thing I will mention, which isn’t really a “dislike”, is that I can’t quite figure out why she used the title “Suspects.” I can’t tell you more because I don’t do spoilers here. I guess I can possibly see a reason, but seriously, having read the book and now written this entire review, I’m still trying to see why Danielle thought it was the best title. Suspects by Danielle Steel – Read, ReRead, or Reconsider Wow! how good this book was. Danielle steel was a good author and I thought She nailed it . She put a lot of her emphasis on romance. This story had a bit of romance, but it was a real good CIA go get them kind of story. This ARC was provided to me via Kindle, Random House Publishing Group- Ballantine and by #NetGalley.

Suspects by Danielle Steel - Pan Macmillan

I instantly loved the main character Theodora Morgan. As is not unusual for Danielle Steel, she creates female characters who are strong women who handle crises in their lives with grace and dignity. And that was certainly the case with Theodora Morgan. Although she had some heartbreaking tragedies in her life, she remained brave and strong and found a reason to continue living. This is a riveting story that is all at once sad, thrilling, and hopeful. The romance between Theo and Mike is well done, and the CIA thriller aspect of this novel is compelling. The main characters instantly draw the reader in and the book is filled with intrigue. Most Danielle Steel fans can’t wait for new books to come out. Despite the fact that she is now writing multiple books each year, I feel like the new ones are still highly anticipated. That’s certainly the case for me! Their attraction is instant but soon danger is lurking in the shadows ready to pounce on both of them. Suspects by Danielle Steel is a cozy contemporary romance you do not want to miss. Your heart will race till the very end of this juicy read! 🥰

I noticed something when reading this book that made me smile. All of the writing manuals, classes, and guides always say “Show, don’t tell. Don’t just tell the story. Show it in dialogue. ” Well, I would say 75% of this story is telling, not showing, but it doesn’t matter. It’s captivating, compelling, and moving. The characters are believable and I connected with them immediately. It completely works. And it made me realize that most or all of the books that I’ve read by Ms. Steel have been written this way. That old adage that “rules are made to be broken” stands true here. This style works for Danielle Steel, as many millions of her readers will attest. It is a good lesson for writers to remember. If you want to write in a way that may break a few rules, and it works for you, go for it. Fans of romantic thrillers and of Danielle Steel will greatly enjoy this one. Theodora "Theo" Morgan is a highly sought-after retail designer. She built her mega prosperous financial empire selling her unique clothing and accessories online. Sadly, her husband and 13-year-old son were kidnapped for ransom last year, resulting in tragedy. The case remains unsolved, and Theo lives with the constant threat of danger. She requires 24/7 protection to maintain her safety. When there's a new Danielle Steel book out, I feel compelled to read it. Suspects is her latest. It's a short book that offers no surprises - but that's not why you read Danielle Steel. Her books are little treats that can be gobbled down in a sitting or two and offer an enjoyable escape. A little glitz and glamour are always fun when there's some espionage added. Not her best but enjoyable, nevertheless. In addition to that, here is another Danielle book that heavily features the city of Paris, one of my favorite places and, I suspect, one of Danielle Steel’s as well since she lives there part of the time. I have always loved any book that she sets in Paris and her descriptions of the city and everything going on there makes me feel like I’m standing right there at the bottom of the Eiffel Tower myself. Fans of Danielle Steel should enjoy this book. It is full of glitz, glamour, and international intrigue. This romance has some added mystery and suspense. I also appreciated that the main female character was somewhat stronger and brighter than the typical Danielle Steel heroines.
