Mirror Image

i'm a big fan of danielle steel novels, and this was the best book i think i've ever read. it was an amazing story of two twins who were so different, and how love, ambition and humiliation can change your life in unexplainable ways. i absolutely could not put this book down, and it was the first time i've ever found myself really crying at a book. it absorbes you in the story in every way imaginable. 5 stars.

As are most of Danielle Steels book I found this book so hard to put down. I read it in one day! Good job I was on holiday. It is the story of twin girls, both so different. Their mother died during childbirth and consequently the younger twin blames herself totally for the death of her mother. And because of this she is the wild child of the two. The older twin is the obedient daughter looking after her father and their large house. Until the fateful day when she meets and falls in love with one of her fathers lawyers.
Circumstances make it that the lawyer marries the wild child (who has terminated a pregnancy bore out of the lust of one of her fathers married colleagues). Until she decides that she wants to really do something and goes out to work in France during the war. The twins change places and the cold frigid wife becomes the deep loving wife. She becomes pregnant and has twin girls and whilst she is having her babies her sister is giving birth to a little boy. During her work she becomes involved in an ambush and her new lover dies and she becomes very ill. Her twin knows and seeks to find her. On her death bed they reveal the truth to the kind lawyer who is distraught. Eventually he realises that she is the one he is in love with and his young son from his first marriage (his wife died) is very happy. He knew the difference between the twins and was on eof very few who did because of a secret freckle on their fingers.

Mirror Image is a fantastic book which deals with the the fascinating relationship between identical twins. They may look alike but they have very different personalities which leads to a whole host of trouble. Danielle Steel yet again has written a book that neatly entwines the characters in the gritty reality of the First World War. This is a story that will leave you emotionally drained at the end. Brilliant
