Never Say Never is a #1 New York Times bestseller novel by Danielle Steel, published January 7, 2025 by Delacorte Press. This deeply moving story follows Oona Kelly Webster, a striking woman with red hair and green eyes who has spent decades building a loving family and a fulfilling career editing books. When her husband of twenty-five years abruptly leaves her for a younger male lover, Oona's carefully constructed life unravels in an instant.

Rather than retreat, Oona travels alone to France, settling into a charming rented house called La Belle Florence in a village outside of Paris. Just as she begins to find her footing, a corporate merger eliminates her job as well. Adrift but resilient, she immerses herself in the healing rhythms of French village life, finds companionship in a rescued white dog, and forms an unlikely friendship with her warm and open neighbor from Trinidad — who turns out to be a world-famous actor. As their connection deepens, Oona must decide whether she is brave enough to risk her heart again.

An inspiring story about second chances, self-discovery, and the courage to remain open to love and change. The hardcover edition is 256 pages; a mass market paperback edition (320 pages) is also available. ISBN: 9780593498644.
