Publisher's summary

When a high-powered gallery owner collides with an offbeat artist, it's the perfect recipe for disaster. Sasha is widowed and knows she was lucky to have been married to a wonderful man. Liam's impulsive behavior has helped tear his marriage apart. While Sasha has been building her Parisian art gallery into an intercontinental success story, Liam has been growing into one of the most striking young painters of his time. Utterly unalike, and with a nine-year age difference between them, the two are brought together by the miracle of art. 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 and bringing out the wild streak that Sasha barely knows she has. That is, until tragedy alters Liam's life, and forces 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.

Critic reviews

"Steel knows what her fans want, and this solid, meaty tale will not disappoint them." (Booklist)

impossible

Danielle Steel's stories are always great. We never know what could work for us.

Bad

I have read/listen all Steel's books and this, I am sad to say, is her worst. If you just want to have background noise this is the one for you. If you want a good listen you'll have to look elsewhere.

Light

If you want a quick escape, it's ok. If you want something deep ... forget it. It's IMPOSSIBLE!!
