Sinossi
Erede di una coppia di celebrità hollywoodiane, Paige Watts è stata sempre attratta dalle luci della ribalta senza mai riuscire a raggiungerle. Così, convoglia le sue aspirazioni frustrate sulla figlia Emma e cerca in ogni modo di farla diventare una star. All'età di nove anni, Emma ottiene il ruolo centrale in una delle serie tv di maggiore successo. Una tragedia inaspettata, però, distrugge ogni cosa. Ora, Emma si trova a dover vivere con sua zia Whitney, una donna molto diversa dalla madre e con ben altre ambizioni. Cresciuta avendo in odio il culto della notorietà nel quale l'avevano allevata i genitori, Whitney è sempre stata la studiosa sorella maggiore orientata alla carriera e senza legami sentimentali di alcun tipo. Tuttavia, in un attimo e senza esitazione, Whitney è pronta a cambiare la propria esistenza per la nipote. Una volta famosa, estroversa e carismatica, Emma dopo l'incidente è l'ombra di se stessa: non riesce più ad articolare suoni e parole, non ricorda nulla, è persa e terrorizzata. Ma con l'aiuto di sua zia, e insieme a un team di operatori sanitari e medici, Emma inizierà a ritrovare la sua strada, ricominciando da capo la sua giovane vita e cambiando quella di tutti coloro che la circondano. "Una notte silenziosa" è una storia commovente di resilienza e speranza.

While I do enjoy Danielle Steel's actual stories and characters often, I am having a really tough time with her writing style. I just feel it is way too simple and seems amateur (which I know I have said before). I feel that too much is repetitive. For example, in this specific book, when introducin Leggi tutto

The one who push push pushes her daughter where it's clear she is living her dream through her daughter. The imaginable disaster happens, a tragedy very severe causes Emma to los Leggi tutto

Profound and moving. This was one Danielle Steel’s best novels in my opinion. Very emotional and a great story on an aunt that steps up to the plate for her niece when tragedy strikes.
