First Sight

A Novel

De: Danielle Steel

Narrado por: Arthur Morey

Paris, L.A., and the world of ready to wear fashion provide rich backdrops for Danielle Steel’s deeply involving story of a gifted designer whose talent and drive have brought her everything - except the ability to erase her past and trust relationships. New York. London. Milan. Paris. Fashion Week in all four cities. A month of endless interviews, parties, and unflagging work and attention to detail at the semiannual ready to wear fashion shows - the famous prêt-à-porter.

At the center of the storm and avalanche of work is American Timmie O’Neill, whose renowned line, Timmie O, is the embodiment of casual chic, in fashion and for the home. She has created a business that inspires, fills, and consumes her life. With an unerring instinct for what the next trend will be, an innate genius for business, tireless labor, and sheer fearlessness, starting from nothing, over two decades Timmie has built an international empire that has brought her enormous satisfaction and success.

In a world where humility and compassion are all too rare, her humor, kindness, integrity, and creativity are inspirational. Yet as blessed as she feels by her success, Timmie harbors the private wounds of a devastating childhood and past tragedy. She is too smart, too experienced, and too hurt to want much in her personal life beyond a succession of convenient, very limited relationships. Always willing to take risks in business, she never risks her heart. But despite her well-ordered and highly controlled world, it turns out that Timmie O’Neill is not immune to magic when it strikes. And it strikes in Paris during Paris Fashion Week, when an intriguing Frenchman comes into her life when she gets sick.

A bit long

Just when you thought the main character couldn't go through another heartache, you get another twist in the story.

really loved it

Would you listen to First Sight again? Why?

no but only because i never listen to books over and over

What did you like best about this story?

there was a lot going on

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

yes but if i say it it will ruin it for others....

Good storyline

I didn't like the narrators' voice. He was not expressive enough for this type of story.

Never disappointed before...but

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

Yes, if they are a Danielle Steel fan, but to read, not on Audible.

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

Timmie's mother being alive.

How could the performance have been better?

Mr. Morey was just not the best fit for this particular type of story.

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

Yes, because a screen play would tighten it up.

Great story never wanted it to end.

My favorite author. Never disappoints.
Always has so many cliff hangers. Awesome writer
Narator did awesome job.

Easy listening fluff

Not the best nor the worst book I have listened to. The choice of middle aged male narrator is a little perplexing. I would have enjoyed it more if the book were narrated by a female, since the story is mostly from a female perspective. Good book to choose if you are listening while doing other things. Doesn't require much brain power to listen.

loved it !!

it was fantastic like all of her books she is the best writer ever ♡

First Sight

A love story of two people who fall in love at first meeting and all the hardships they face to get to the happily ever after.

True Love

I like the story but a little too much loving in bedroom at times. The story could be anyone’s life story and happy it had a wonderful ending.

great book!

Loved it! Especially the ending. It was read very well
As I listened I was transformed to Paris to Malibu, it felt that I could see it myself.
