First Sight - By : Danielle Steel
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.
FIRST SIGHT
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
pret-a-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. At first, Timmie and Jean-Charles Vernier are only patient and
physician. They become confidants and friends, corresponding at a safe
distance between Paris and Los Angeles once she goes home. There is
every reason why they must remain apart. But neither can deny their
growing friendship and the electricity that sparks whenever they meet.
