Nine Lives

by Danielle Steel

First published 2021

Maggie Kelly learned early to avoid danger. Her daredevil pilot father died when she was nine, leaving her mother to rebuild their shattered lives while moving from city to city. Her mother's warnings about reckless men shaped every choice Maggie made. She rejected her wild high school boyfriend and married a dependable man instead. They built a conventional suburban life and raised a son together until tragedy struck again. Now alone, Maggie feels adventure calling for the first time. She books a trip across the US to Rome, Paris, London and Monaco, determined to face her fears. Her travels lead her back to the thrill-seeking man she spent thirty years trying to forget. Maggie knows that loving him could mean disaster, but she must choose between the safety she has always chosen and the dangerous magic of true love.
