Description It is New Year’s Eve when the storm of the century hits northern California. In a quiet neighborhood in San Francisco, amid the chaos of fallen trees and damaged homes, the lives of three strangers are about to collide. For Quinn Thompson, what happens in the storm’s wake will bring down a barrier he has built around himself since his wife’s death. For neighbor Maggie Dartman, it will spark friendship at a time when she needs it most. And for Jack Adams, a carpenter who will repair Quinn’s and Maggie’s homes, the storm brings an opportunity: to help two people and to be repaid with the greatest gift of all. As three lives come together and a unique friendship is forged, something extraordinary begins to happen...Maggie, still grieving a loss, slowly comes alive again-–and Jack finally shares a painful secret he has hidden for years. But at the center of the friendship is Quinn. A man who has scaled heights of success in business, Quinn is now adrift, waiting as builders put the finishing touches on his newest passion, a 180-foot yacht he plans to sail around the world. Looking back at all he missed with his family while he built his empire, Quinn is consumed by guilt, focused only on escaping to the sea. But as his plans near completion, and his friendship with Maggie begins to change, Quinn faces a choice–between a safe haven and an adventure of the heart. The choice he makes will affect other lives as powerfully as his own. And it will take him on an extraordinary journey-–and into a second, terrifying storm, one that will bring him danger...or deliverance. Danielle Steel brings us miracles big and small-–the kind we are blessed with and those we give to others. With a subtle hand and a flawless touch, she has written a novel that soars with hope, and makes us laugh, cry, and care. From the Hardcover edition.
Insightful reviews Jen Marx: I found this book to be quite trite. The story of a man who loses his wife and son, and finds replacements for both of them, is not exactly the least predictable tale ever told. I also found the descriptions of characters and settings to be quite empty. I pictured Quinn, Maggie, and Jack more as phantoms floating in and out of ambiguous locales than as actual people operating in the real world. Even in one of the final scenes where dozens of people aboard a ship are certain they are going to die, I felt no real sense of emotion at all. The characters were simply shadows. While I wouldn't say this story tugged my heart strings, it did ever so slightly pluck at them from time to time, which is why I am giving this book 2 stars as opposed to 1 or 0. Kathy: Danielle Steel has a predictable recipe for her novel... character faces a crisis and recovers to find happiness. It's nice to be assured that there is life beyond personal crisis, but the formula gets a bit contrite, especially when everyone always lives happily ever after.
The biggest negative in her writing of Miracle was repetition. Every fact was repeated at least three times, as if the reader didn't catch it the first time around. For me it made the story drag on. Jirrine: It just not my cup of tea. Danielle Steel is repetitive and the story is predictable. It really is just another romance story. Nothing special..

Todd: one other quite predictable story. yet what kept this from entire mediocrity is the constructing bromance among quinn and jack, which occurs early on within the book. a bromantic love triangle among quinn, jack and maggie might have sweetened the deal, yet hey, it is a hetero romance novel so i suppose that is only one of the constraints of the genre. even though i actually do not believe any so-called "straight" guy could ever identify his boat "vol de nuit" after a singular via antoine de saint-exupery. that cracked me up each time the narrator pointed out it.
