Impossible

De: Danielle Steel

Narrado por: David Garrison

When a high-powered gallery owner collides with a wildly offbeat artist, it's the perfect recipe for disaster. But in her 63rd best-selling novel, Danielle Steel proves that when two hopelessly mismatched people share a love for art, a passion for each other, and a city like Paris, nothing is truly impossible...or is it?

Everything Sasha does is within the boundaries of tradition. Liam is sockless in December. Sasha is widowed, a woman who knows she was lucky enough to be married to the most wonderful man in the world and thankful for every moment they had. Liam is half in and half out of a marriage that only a "wacky" artist could manage, and that his own impossibly impulsive behavior has helped tear apart. But while Sasha has been methodically building her father's Parisian art gallery into an intercontinental success story, Liam has been growing into one of the most original and striking young painters of his time. So while the two are utterly unalike - and a nine-year age difference stares them squarely in the face - the miracle of art brings them crashing together.

Now the question is, can Sasha guard her reputation while juggling a secret, somewhat scandalous relationship? And how can Liam, who lives for the moment, put up with a woman who insists on having things her own way, in her own style, and at her own time?

For Sasha, it's a matter of keeping Liam hidden from her grown children and well-heeled clientele as she commutes between New York and Paris and two thriving galleries. For Liam, it's about creating chaos out of order, bringing out the wild streak that Sasha barely knows she has, of choosing pizza over foie gras, and making love when others are busy making money. That is, until a family tragedy suddenly alters Liam's life - and forces a choice and a sacrifice that neither one of them could have expected. But from the snow falling on the Tuileries to the joy of eating ice cream by candlelight, the artist and the art dealer have tasted perfection. And giving up now might just be the most impossible thing of all.

With unerring insight into the hearts of men and women - and into the soul of the artist - Danielle Steel takes us into a world of glamour and genius, priceless art and dazzling creativity. From the luxurious galleries of Europe to the endless beaches of the Hamptons, Impossible weaves an extraordinary tale of love and compromise, of taking chances and counting blessings. With brilliant color and breathtaking emotion, Danielle Steel has written her most compelling novel to date.

Impossible

This story had my emotions all over the place. Sasha was an idiot. I have her so much credit initially, but was so disappointed when she took him back again and again. What a dumb chick! I think she was hooked on the sex. He gave her what she’s never had before! Davy in business and a dumb ass in love. Very disappointing for her to take him back after all of his tantrums. He clearly did not deserve her and she let him walk all over her values! Dumb bitch!

Amazing book

Loved it.The story line was great.The characters were great.I love the places she goes in her books

Danielle sucks you in

What did you like best about Impossible? What did you like least?

The characters were great; they were cute, and real. The book made me feel right there and the emotions along with the characters - which is great writing. If you like romance's (which I typically think are too cheesy), then you'll enjoy this.

Do you think Impossible needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

I would love that - to see the two main characters and what is going on in their lives now...

A little disappointed

Too much repetition and not enough depth. However, keeps you listening to the end to see how it turns out.

Never underestimate DS’s creative mind

WOW! So many ups & downs in this story! A frustrating story, but one a person just keeps reading! I’m glad I finished it and by doing that the title and storyline fit! Not a great read for m, but DS is still a wonderful author & I look forward to her next book!

The Best

Its Danielle Steel

Would you listen to Impossible again? Why?

No, I never read anythingtwice, except by accident.

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

Its a Danielle Steel romance. They usually end the same way, no surprise.

Any additional comments?

I love Danielle Steel, but in her romances, there is usually nothing unusual.

Great Love story!

Danielle Steel is my favorite author and she did not disappoint in this love story full of lives’ challenges!

Done with Danielle Steele

This was one of the worst books I’ve ever suffered through. The only reason I didn’t toss it after the 1st three chapters is b/c I kept thinking surely it would get better. I’ve read dozens of Danielle Steele books and enjoyed almost all. This was uninspired, predictable, and dull. It may very well be the last Danielle Steele book I ever read.
