WINNERS
Lily Thomas is an aspiring ski champion training for the Olympics, a young woman with her heart set on winning the gold. But in one moment, Lily’s future is changed forever, her hopes for the Olympics swept away in a tragic accident.
Dr. Jessie Matthews, the neurosurgeon who operates on her that night, endures a tragedy of her own, and instantly becomes the sole support of her four young children, while her own future hangs in the balance.
Bill, Lily’s father, has pinned all his hopes on his only daughter, his dreams now shattered.
Other lives will entwine themselves with theirs: Joe, a financial manager, faces a ruined career at the hand of a dishonest partner. Carole, a psychologist at Mass General, is a breast cancer survivor, her body and heart scarred by what she’s been through. Teddy, with a spinal cord injury worse than Lily’s, dreams of college and becoming an artist.
From the ashes of their lives, six people fight to alter the course of destiny and refuse to be defeated. When Bill builds a remarkable rehab facility for his daughter, countless lives are forever altered, and each becomes a winner.
Winners is about refusing to be beaten, no matter how insurmountable the challenge. And when Lily gets on skis again and enters the Paralympics, the battle to brave life again is won.
Winners is about more than surviving, it is about courage, victory, and triumph. When all appears to be lost, the battle has just begun.
BONUS: This edition includes an excerpt from Danielle Steel's Pegasus.

Love this book!!!!!. So well written as usual by DS. I was sad when it ended as I wanted the story to continue. Well worth your time to read!
Winners. I couldn't put it down. It proves to us that not everyone has a perfect live and how fast it can change. Awesome.
Winners. Very enjoyable book to read, but as usual Danielle Steel is so repetitive. Just don't take this one seriously!
Very moving & highly recommended!. Though not a new book, Danielle Steel’s "Winners" is one of the most moving books that I have read in a long time. This is the story of an Olympic-level athlete who is suddenly rendered paraplegic by an accident, and who must build a new life. I had to remind myself that this was fiction, because the characters were so authentic. I can attest to this because of my husband's year of paralysis (from an illness, Guillain-Barre Syndrome). My only "complaint" is that one of the doctors in the novel stated that patients want to get away from the hospital, thinking that they can leave their condition behind. I haven't ever known a single serious patient who believes that. Instead, the patients want to return home for several reasons including: They want to be in their familiar, comforting environment,they want to be where they will have a little more control over their routine, they want to be where they can see their pets every day. There is something therapeutic about going home; it is a step toward the "new hormal." But otherwise, this is a wonderful book, for which I have two hopes. I hope that Ms. Steele will follow up on these characters; a sequel would be awesome. In addition, this would make a great movie!
Predictable..... A little too phony and very predictable...how could a father who loves his daughter THAT much, let her go out skiing in a horrible snowstorm?!?! Everyone is also SUPER wealthy in all of her novels.
A truly original story!. I absolutely loved this book! Such an original story, full of compelling characters and real drama. There’s just the right amount of pathos, laughs and everyday details to keep it real. Thank you Danielle Steel for writing such a treasure!
Winners. I wanted a few more pages for Bill and Jessie's married life. Wished it did not end yet.
Awesome story. A wonderful read with a story full of hope and real life experiences that give a look into the lives of real people and the challenges they overcome. It was a heartwarming story and an uplifting enjoyable book.
Winners. Sweet story really enjoyed.
An ok read. This was totally predictable and slow paced at times.
