DESCRIPTION:
Leap of Faith. A Customer We all have been deceived in life. Sometimes by our own naive disposition. This was an extreme case of putting trust and Faith in someone who doesn't have the least bit of good intentions or love reciprocated in any way. It was an excellent lesson learned and ended happily. I also liked how Marie always had someone and was never completely without. We just have to try to take noticed as to who our true friends really are. That's the boat we want to b. I thoroughly enjoyed the beginning of the book and most of it I thoroughly enjoyed the beginning of the book and most of it. I thought from the meeting of the husband, especially after learning about the 1st. wife's story, it was absolutely foolish for anyone to not see her fate ! No one could be that naïve about the money she kept extending to him. It became boring to me after that. I wanted it to be over soon. I was very disappointed. I always love Danielle Steele books. Not one of her best!. julie Munn said Having faith is worth it. Show that there is hope in faith if we let it happen
