New York Times bestselling author Kristin Hannah touches the deepest, most tender corner of our hearts (Tami Hoag). Her last novel, Between Sisters, was chosen by CBSs The Early Show as one of the best books of the summer. Now she returns with The Things We Do for Lovea poignant, evocative story that celebrates the magic of motherhood, the joys of coming home, and the price we so willingly pay for love.The youngest of three daughters, Angela DeSaria Malone was always the princess of the family, a girl who thought she knew how her life would unfold. High School. College. Marriage. Motherhood. That was how it had gone for her sisters, her cousins, her friends. But it didnt work out that way for Angie. She and her husband tried desperately to have a child; year after year, their perfectly decorated nursery remained empty. Finally, their marriage collapsed under the weight of lost dreams.After the divorce, Angie moved back to her hometown and rejoined her loud, loving, slightly crazy family. In West End, a place where life rises and falls in time with the tides, she will find the man who once again will open her heart to love . . . and meet the girl who will change Angies life.Lauren Ribido lives in a rundown apartment in a bad part of town with a mother who cares more about her next drink than about her daughter. At seventeen, Lauren knows that her aspirations in life may never come to pass.From the moment they meet, Angie sees something special in Lauren. They form a quick connection, this woman who is desperate for a daughter and the girl who has never known a mothers love. When Lauren is abandoned by her mother, Angie doesnt hesitate to offer the girl a place to stay.But nothing could have prepared Angie for the farreaching repercussions of this act of kindness. In a dramatic turn of events, she and Lauren will be tested in a way that mothers and daughters seldom are. Together they will embark on an intensely moving, deeply emotional journey to the very heart of what it means to be a family.Praise for The Things We Do for Love[Kristin] Hannah is superb at delving into her main characters psyches and delineating nuances of feeling.
