...His Bright Light by DanielleSteel was voted New York Times Best-seller, and I can see why, this book is a mother’s story about her son, it is a sad book where DanielleSteel describes her son’s s life.
She re-calls his nineteen years, his battles throughout his life and at the end the death of her son.
She describes a illness from which her son suffered and highlights the effect it had on him, and in doing so you get the feeling she wants other’s to discuss their problems as well.
The best way to describe this book is that in writing about her son, she hopes to help other’s. He suffered from a mental illness, which cost him his life.
DanielleSteel’s son had all of help around him such as attendants who were paid to look after him twenty four hours a day, yet he still attempted and succeeded...

...decision. It involves a lot of funny situations, some interesting bedroom antics and a lot of soul seerching. I've read a lot of DanielleSteel's book in the past and had a break of about six months. I picked this one up in a second hand shop and was glad that I did. As a busy mother of two I find it hard to find the time to read but I couldn't put this one down. It's funny, sexy, down-to-earth, and will have you wanting to read more of her books. I read this one in about five days, which for me is a record. I loved it so much that I told all my friends about it. If you like DanielleSteel you must read this one, if you've never read any of her books try this one first, you'll want to read more....
