Devoted fans of Danielle Steel will be excited to awaken
Christmas morning to a wrapped copy of her newest book,
TOXIC BACHELORS. The reader in your life will be oblivious
to the sounds of Christmas toys at full volume as she loses
herself in the story of three confirmed bachelors, Adam,
Charlie, and Gray.
Adam, Charlie, and Gray spend a month each summer being
international playboys. They sail the exclusive ports of
Europe. They enjoy all the excesses of the good life, food
drink, parties, and women.
This year's trip is no exception. It starts as each trip
typically does, full of food, drink, and general debauchery.
For Gray it changes when he meets a woman in one of the
ports. Little did the men realize that not only would
Gray's life change because of his meeting Sylvia but slowly
but surely would Cupid's arrow also find Adam and Charlie.
Love isn't smooth for any of the men, but the women in their
lives are stubborn, and dig in their heels as to what they
expect and don't expect out of a relationship. In the end
the men somewhat reform, and decide that life as a confirmed
bachelor won't keep them company as they age.
If the female reader in your life is a devoted Steel Fan
then TOXIC BACHELORS will make a nice addition to her
collection.
They were the best of friends and the most daunting of
bachelors....Charlie Harrington, a handsome philanthropist,
has such high expectations for his perfect bride that no
mortal need apply....Adam Weiss, a forty-something celebrity
lawyer, prefers his women very young, very voluptuous, and
very short-term….And for Gray Hawk, a gifted artist with a
knack for attracting troubled relationships, women are fine;
it’s just the idea of family he can’t imagine (particularly
the family of the woman he’s dating).
Now the three friends, spending their annual summer vacation
cruising the Mediterranean aboard Charlie’s majestic yacht,
are about to have their bachelorhood rocked. By autumn all
three will fall precipitously into relationships they never
saw coming. Charlie begins dating a crusading social worker
who couldn’t be further from his ideal–until he makes a
stunning discovery about her. Adam gets involved with his
usual twenty-something bombshell–only this one has a
remarkable mind of her own. And Gray, who has avoided both
business and family like the plague, has managed to fall
head over heels for a successful career woman–who just
happens to be a mother as well.
As another holiday on the yacht approaches, and with it a
turning point in each man’s life, the three bachelors are
forced to face the things that scare them most: their
phobias about relationships, the wounds of the past–and the
kind of women who challenge their deepest terrors. What
happens next will spark big changes for Charlie, Adam, and
Gray–and might just put an end to their carousing days
forever. For as the once-carefree trio is about to discover,
love is the most unpredictable adventure of all.
