ALL HE EVER WANTED: SYNOPSISA man's obsession with his young wife begins the moment they first meet — as he helps her escape from a hotel fire — and culminates in a marriage doomed by secrets and betrayal.
Written with the intelligence and grace that are hallmarks of Anita Shreve's bestselling novels, this gripping tale of desire, jealousy, and loss is peopled by unforgettable characters as real as the emotions that bring them together.
SEA GLASS: SYNOPSISWith all the narrative power and emotional immediacy that have made her novels acclaimed international bestsellers, Anita Shreve unfolds a richly engaging tale of marriage, money, and troubled times - the story of a pair of young newlyweds who, setting out to build a life together in a derelict beach house on the Atlantic coast, soon discover how threatening the world outside their front door can be.
RESISTANCE: SYNOPSISIn Resistance, Anita Shreve uses a wartime setting to sharpen the themes she has explored in previous novels—and leads us into a harrowing work where forbidden passions have catastrophic consequences. In a Nazi-occupied Belgian village, Claire Daussois, the wife of a resistance worker, shelters a wounded American bomber pilot in a secret attic hideaway. As she nurses him back to health, Claire falls in love and is soon locked in a passionate affair that seems strong enough to conquer all—until the brute realities of war intrude, shattering every idea she ever had about love, trust, and betrayal.
Resistance is a powerful exploration of emotion at odds with commitment. No reader who has loved—or resisted love—will forget this lucid and moving tale.
