{"product_id":"book-atvi","title":"Bittersweet","description":"In \u003cb\u003eBittersweet\u003c\/b\u003e, Danielle Steel has written a novel for our times, a story of choices  and new beginnings.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e India Taylor lived in a world of manicured lawns and neatly  maintained calendars: a merry-go-round of Little League, piano lessons, and Cape  Cod summer vacations. With four wonderful children, India believed in commitment  and sacrifice, just as she believed in Doug, the man she married 17 years before.  For India, this was the promise she made, the life she had chosen—not the award-winning  career as a photojournalist she once had. It was a choice she had never truly regretted.  Until she begins to regret it with all her heart.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e India couldn't pinpoint the exact  moment. Perhaps it was the last time her agent called, begging her to take an assignment  Doug insisted she turn down. Or perhaps it was when Doug told her he thought of her  as a companion and someone to take care of their kids, and not much more. At that  moment, the price of the sacrifices she'd made began to seem high.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e And then, she  met Paul Ward. A Wall Street tycoon married to a bestselling author, Paul lived life  on his own terms, traveling the world on his own yacht. India hadn't planned to become  Paul's friend. Anything more was unthinkable. Yet talking to Paul was so easy. India  could share her dreams with him, and offer comfort when Paul suffers a heartbreak  of his own. And while Paul urges India to reclaim her career, Doug is adamantly against  it, determined to keep her tied to the home. But with Paul's encouragement, India  slowly, painfully, begins to break free, and find herself again.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Rediscovering her  creativity and her courage, India uses Paul like a beacon on the horizon, sharing  intimate phone conversations with a man half a world away, a man who never stops  reminding her of all that is possible for her. India is changing, and nothing in  her life will ever be the same again. Not her marriage. Not her friendship with Paul.  And when India is presented with an irresistible opportunity, she makes a heart-wrenching  decision, leaving a safe, familiar place-and the people she loves there-to move into  the terror of the unknown.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eBittersweet\u003c\/b\u003e is her story, a story of freedom, of having  dreams and making choices to find them. With unerring insight, Danielle Steel has  created a moving portrait of a woman who dares to embark on a new adventure and the  man who helps her get there. Her painful, exhilarating journey inspires us all.","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":49341068476720,"sku":"BDatvi","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/242920-atvi-Square.jpg?v=1734053721","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-atvi","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
