Implant

by Liliana Marchesi Barbara M. Patrizi

The second chapter of a Dystopian saga built on the belief that man knows about and uses only a fraction of the brain's real ability. A saga in which heart and mind collide against a backdrop of unrest, passions, plotting, and extreme actions. A story that will shock you! After being torn from a life that she believed hers, Kendall finds herself immersed in a world completely different from what she believed. And just as she was about to discover the origin of the bond between her and Trevor, the leader of the Orphans, a succession of unpredictable events forced them apart. Kendall is now in the hands of Axel, who more than anyone want to resurrect her lost memories so that he can get hold of the information he desperately craves. But how will he convince her to cooperate? What effect will the Root implant have on her? Will the days spent at the Mind's headquarters change her view on the Orphans? Or will she do everything in her power to find a way to return to the Mausoleum and to Trevor? Can you really lose yourself in someone else's eyes? Well, that's what just happened to me. Sucked into an ocean in which warm and cold currents swirl into an incredible blue giving life to a unique color, I was incapable of resurfacing. Or maybe I simply didn't want to. It was as if my soul had migrated towards that magnetic gaze and had no intention of returning. Who was that man? And why was he staring at me with such an intensity I wanted to cry?

But in her 63rd bestselling novel, Danielle Steel proves that when two hopelessly mismatched people share a love for art, a passion for each other, and a city like Paris, nothing is truly impossible…or is it?

Sasha is widowed, a woman who knows she was lucky enough to be married to the most wonderful man in the world and thankful for every moment they had. Liam is half in and half out of a marriage that only a &“wacky&” artist could manage, and that his own impossibly impulsive behavior has helped tear apart. But while Sasha has been methodically building her father&’s Parisian art gallery into an intercontinental success story, Liam has been growing into one of the most original and striking young painters of his time. So while the two are utterly unalike–and a nine-year age difference stares them squarely in the face–the miracle of art brings them crashing together. Now the question is, can Sasha guard her reputation while juggling a secret, somewhat scandalous relationship? And how can Liam, who lives for the moment, put up with a woman who insists on having things her own way, in her own style, and at her own time? For Sasha, it&’s a matter of keeping Liam hidden from her grown children and well-heeled clientele as she commutes between New York and Paris and two thriving galleries. For Liam, it&’s about creating chaos out of order, bringing out the wild streak that Sasha barely knows she has, of choosing pizza over foie gras, and making love when others are busy making money. That is, until a family tragedy suddenly alters Liam&’s life–and forces a choice and a sacrifice that neither one of them could have expected. But from the snow falling on the Tuileries to the joy of eating ice cream by candlelight, the artist and the art dealer have tasted perfection. And giving up now might just be the most impossible thing of all.
