Meet Maxine Williams, a dedicated doctor with three great kids, a challenging career, and the perfect new man in her life. Her only problem? Her irresistibly charming, utterly infuriating ex-husband, aka the . . .
Rogue
Being married to Blake had been an amazing adventure for Maxine. Brilliant, charismatic, and wholly unpredictable, Blake Williams made millions and grabbed headlines as a dot-com entrepreneur. His only shortcoming was as a husband—first his work and then his never-ending quest for fun kept him constantly on the move, far away from Maxine and his family. For five years Blake and Maxine have worked out an odd but amicable divorce, with friendly though infrequent visits, a yacht he lends her every summer, and three children they both adore. Blake enjoys his globe-trotting lifestyle—dating a succession of beautiful, famous, and very young women—while Maxine raises their kids in Manhattan and pursues her passion, working as a psychiatrist, a world-renowned expert on childhood trauma and adolescent suicide. Then everything changes….
For Maxine it starts when she falls in love with Dr. Charles West, a man who is everything Blake is not—mature, grounded, and present. For Blake it begins when a devastating earthquake strikes near one of his palatial foreign homes and he sees hundreds of orphaned children in need of shelter. Now Blake wants Maxine in his life again—as a partner in a humanitarian project that could change countless lives. For Maxine the choice is clear. But Blake’s sudden transformation—from carefree playboy to compassionate, responsible grown-up—raises questions she’s never managed to answer . . . and some she’s afraid to ask. After all, Maxine is on the cusp of a new life, about to marry Charles, and almost certain that Blake Williams, aka the Rogue, is a man capable of doing anything—except change….
An unforgettable story of two people pursuing happiness from opposite directions, Rogue is a journey of choices and the amazing opportunities that come together—just when life seems to have been successfully rearranged at last.

Hello can anyone say Philadelphia Story. Anyone who saw the movie had to see it coming at the end and picture Cary Grant and Katherine Hepburn. I was very dissapointed when i realized this was the same story and felt like i had wasted my time reading this book.
Daniel Steel has done it again. Once you start reading this book you cannot put it down.
I was very disappointed in this book. I understand that she wants us to be involved and become vested in the characters, but I found myself bored with all the jet-setting and money flashing around. Ms. Steele spends a significant portion of this book discussing the geography and travel plans of her very wealthy characters. The plot was simple and could have been resolved in half the time. Her writing takes you into the picture she has painted however, there was too much scenery and not enough substance.
This book was ordered for my mother who was very pleased with it. It arrived quickly and in great condition.
I stopped reading her about 10 years ago, and this book reminded me why. This book is so bad that it has inspired me to give my first book review on here ever. The only decent character in the whole book is the one who gets shafted in the end. What a total waste of time reading this was. I can't believe I used to wait for her next book to come out. The main character, Maxine, is a psychiatrist who could really use one. Totally unbelievable plot and nothing well done in the whole book.
