Analysis: Fairytale: By Danielle Steel. Camille Lammenais Returns from College to Manage Her Family's Winery in Napa Valley and Is Forced to Deal with Tragedy and Unexpected Dangers.

Fairytale Camille Lammenais has grown up in the charm of the Napa Valley, surrounded by fields of her family's grapevines. Her parents, Christophe and Joy, still intensely in love after two decades of marriage, have developed a renowned winery and chateau modeled following Christophe's ancient family land in his native Bordeaux. Camille has had an excellent childhood, safe in her progenitors' love. After finishing her studies at Stanford, she returns to help direct Chateau Joy, her existence goal. But their fairytale ends abruptly with her mother's death from cancer. 'She had to serve in her mother's footsteps. The destiny of Chateau Joy rested on her now too. It was a remarkable burden to carry, and she would have to find a way to do it, no matter what it takes.' Six months after losing his wife, the devastated Christophe is easy prey for a mysterious, charming Frenchwoman visiting the valley. Camille, still lamenting for her mother, is shocked by the news that her father plans to remarry. Then she starts to see past the alluring looks, designer clothes, and elegant demeanors of the Countess. The Countess de Pantin is the nature of Parisian seductiveness and sophistication. Within weeks they are a couple in private, making love like adolescents, glowing with their secret. Deeply in love, Christophe and Joy Lammenais improved Chateau Lammenais into a small but celebrated Napa Valley winery and a pleasant home where they raised their beloved daughter, Camille, who takes on increasing responsibilities for the property they all treasure. But after Joy's early death just after Camille's graduation from Stanford. The lonely Christophe soon falls victim to the machinations of the sophisticated lady from his native France, who moves, with her two good-for-nothing sons, to consolidate her power over Camille and the property when Christophe dies in a plane crash. With this French "fairy godmother" on the scene, but, the son of an adjacent vintner to assist, and a vital Harvest Ball on the horizon, lovely Camille may make some potent magic of her own When tragedy beats, Camille is at her stepmother's pity and that of the two evil stepbrothers who appear. Camille wants to fight, first for her legacy, and then for her very life. But as she grapples with the plots being carried out against her, the countess's elderly, kind, and smart mother becomes her only ally, and a childhood friend emerges as a prince worthy of any fairytale. An excellent, beautifully told story from America's famous novelist, Fairytale is a captivating symbol of the truths that will always endure even the darkest moments and a reminder that sometimes miracles do come true, and good predominates over evil in the end.
