About this listen

 Eleven years have passed since Alexa Hamilton left the South behind, fleeing the pain of her ex-husband's betrayal and the cruelty of his prominent Charleston family. Now an assistant D.A. in Manhattan, Alexa has made a name for herself as a top prosecutor while juggling her role as devoted single mom to a teenage daughter.

But everything changes when Alexa is handed her latest case: the trial of accused serial killer Luke Quentin. Alexa prepares for a high-stakes trial...until threatening letters are addressed to her beautiful 17-year-old daughter, Savannah. Alexa is certain that Quentin is behind the letters - and that they are too dangerous to ignore. Suddenly she must make the toughest choice of all - and send her daughter back to the very place she swore she would never return to: the place where her marriage ended in heartbreak...her ex-husband's world of Southern tradition, memories of betrayal, and the antebellum charm of Charleston.

Now, while Alexa's trial builds to a climax in New York, her daughter is settling into southern life, discovering a part of her family history and a father she barely knows. As secrets are exposed and old wounds are healed, Alexa and Savannah, after a season in different worlds, will come together again - strengthened by the challenges they have faced, and with Savannah now at home in the Southern world her mother fled.

A novel that will catch you off guard at every turn, Southern Lights is Danielle Steel at her electrifying best.©2009 Danielle Steel (P)2009 Brilliance Audio, Inc.

Enjoyed as always light and easy.listen, not strong storyline but this did not detract from the pleasure of listening.

Great storyline. Narrator is quite flat which I didn’t like at first but then realised he has clearly been chosen due to the range of accents he can do so overall it was very good!

Classic Danielle Steele

I loved listening to this book. I've read lots of Danielle Steel books but listening to them was even better. The guy has a great voice which make it even better. Bring on more.

Trying not to give spoilers but... Everyone had the best looks, the best grades, the best job, the best house, the captain of the team. All murder victims were upstanding members of the community, none, were struggling in life. 

Alexa - with the busiest job in the whole of the US at the time, had frequent weekends away on holiday during a HUGE trial. 

Not realistic.


The word 'and' must have been used a million times. And then she ate that, and then they did that, and then they had the best meal, and the best manicure and the best hotel room and the best university place.  Language like "she looked like she was going to have a tantrum".  No disrespect but anyone could write this, but she clearly has a huge following.  


The story literally moves onto another topic from one page to the next! 

The final straw for me was and ex wife in the story (not saying which one) states that her ex husband should marry a woman she'd met once "because she is amazing" it was so poorly written. And a coincidental European city meeting.  There's so much that I want to say but I can't ruin it for others! 


Maybe this is how she writes and this is why people love her. This is my first and last book; I can totally see why she is loved - easy reading with a happy ending!

Had to finish it to see if it ended exactly how I thought it would, but I had to fast forward to the last chapter, couldn't bear the last few chapters.

I realised she must only write totally dreamy love stories. 

But, at least something so farfetched as a meal at the Whitehouse didn't happen... Oh yeah, that did happen! 

Never again! 

Terrible
