Publisher Description
After his wife leaves him for another man, Hugues Martin’s life revolves solely around two things—the celebrated five-star hotel he owns and manages in New York City and his daughter Heloise. At four, Heloise becomes the only woman in her father’s life; by seven, she is the undisputed queen of the Hotel Vendome. And as the years pass, despite her mother’s abandonment, she basks in her father’s love, the devotion of the hotel’s staff, and the affection of its guests. But their little world is transformed forever when Heloise moves to France for hotel school and Hugues meets his match in Natalie Peterson, a woman who understands him and his love for the Vendome. Is there room in their lives for Natalie, or will her intrusion ruin their special bond? A novel about second chances and learning to trust again, Hotel Vendome is Danielle Steel at her best.

Hotel Vendome Listener Reviews

" It was pure Danielle Steel...........poorly written. "
— Shelley, 2/19/2014 -
" I haven't read any of her books for a long time. She is a good storyteller. I especially enjoyed the information about what happens behind the scenes is an exclusive hotel. "
— Judy, 2/16/2014 -
" These are my comfort reads and I enjoyed this one. The storyline is predictable once you've read a few Danielle Steel. I still like to curl up with one and a cup of tea for a few hours. "
— Kim, 2/13/2014 -
" This was an enjoyable read. Heloise was born into privelage and yet she did not feel the need to use her privelages as a source of power or greed. "
— Patricia, 2/11/2014 -

" Decent Danielle Steel book. Funny how it was Heloise at the Hotel Vendome, and she even mentions Eloise at The Plaza. Cute book overall. "

" Typical formula by Steel but an okay quick read. "
— Eve, 1/14/2014 -
" I liked it and the ONLY reason it took me nearly 2 months to read is because I kept getting CD's that were scratched. In mid February finally got a copy that was scratch free. "
— Lori, 1/13/2014 -
" Fun read out of my usual genre. "
— Jean, 12/11/2013 -
" Do not read this book for the love of god. I had a choice of reading this or buying a $30 magazine that would last me 2 hours. So I read the book... But I'm not happy about it... "
— Sara, 12/11/2013 -

" I loved this book. I always wanted to work in the hotel field and this book truly told the dedication one needs to make when you work in this area. Loved the story between the dad and his daughter. "
— Barb, 11/21/2013 -
" The first half of this book was painfully redundant. I almost decided not to finish it. The ending was okay. Not really a very enjoyable book for me. "
— Karen, 11/1/2013 -
