5.0 out of 5 stars It was extremely touching, March 17, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Passion's Promise (Paperback)

Anyone who likes reading about human relationships and about love in particular should read this book. This is the only book whose characters stayed with me for days. Especially Lucas John and the love Kezia had for him. To give up all your riches, to see beyond a person's social status, to know him like he is from the inside...that's the power of love.

5.0 out of 5 stars D. Steele is so exciting and romantic, yet down-to-earth!, April 7, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Passion's Promise (Hardcover)

I just love Danielle Steele. I'm working on reading every one of her books. Every book of hers that I see I buy! In Passion's Promise, she writes about a women that grew up with a rich and tramatic lifestyle. She writes how hard it was, everyone always thinks it's so glamorous. The ending is such a surprise. The book reads so fast! It's unpredictable. Danielle Steele can write! It is my dream to meet her. Every book that I've read of hers has been excellant. I have nothing bad to say about any of them. She's the most creative and interesting writer. I hate reading, except Danielle Steele books.

3.0 out of 5 stars Starts out Slow, Finishes with a bang, April 3, 2001

"missthing2u" (Garland, Texas USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Passion's Promise (Paperback)

I really thought throughout the first 70 pages that I was going to give up on this book, just put it down and forget about it. The style DS uses during writing this book is quite different from many of her other novels. The style reminded me of Anne Rice during Exit to Eden. There was a lot to the book, many thoughts, and runnings of the mind; you could call it a big mood swing. I didn't care about Kezia or the other characters at all until about halfway through the book. Then, it turned into something interesting. Passions Promise should have probably been titled "Kezia's Emotional Roller Coaster." The thing that makes you read on is out of curiousity wondering if this crazy chick is going to get it together in time to rip out another heart. The ending is not so great that it makes the boring first chapters worthwhile but it's good casual reading for the die-hard DS fan.
