It showcases Diane Chamberlain at the top of her talent.</b><br><i><br>One mistake, one fateful night, and Tess DeMello's life is changed forever. </i> <p/>It is 1944. Pregnant, alone, and riddled with guilt, twenty-three-year-old Tess DeMello abruptly gives up her budding career as a nurse and ends her engagement to the love of her life, unable to live a lie. Instead, she turns to the baby's father for help and agrees to marry him, moving to the small, rural town of Hickory, North Carolina. Tess's new husband, Henry Kraft, is a secretive man who often stays out all night, hides money from his new wife, and shows her no affection. Tess quickly realizes she's trapped in a strange and loveless marriage with no way out. <p/>The people of Hickory love and respect Henry but see Tess as an outsider, treating her with suspicion and disdain. When one of the town's golden girls dies in a terrible accident, everyone holds Tess responsible. But Henry keeps his secrets even closer now, though it seems that everyone knows something about him that Tess does not. <p/>When a sudden polio epidemic strikes Hickory, the townspeople band together to build a polio hospital. Tess knows she is needed and defies Henry's wishes to begin working at there. Through this work, she begins to find purpose and meaning. Yet at home, Henry's actions grow more alarming by the day. As Tess works to save the lives of her patients, can she untangle the truth behind her husband's mysterious behavior and find the love--and the life--she was meant to have? <p/><b>A Library Reads Top Ten Book of October 2017</b> <p/><b>Praise for <i>The Stolen Marriage: </i></b> <p/>[A] <b>well-crafted</b> crime-tinged tale. --<i>Publishers Weekly</i> <i> <p/>The Stolen Marriage</i> is <b>the kind of story that will grab you and refuse to let you go</b> until you turn the last page. --<i>All About Romance</i></p> <p/><br></br><p><b> About The Author </b></p></br></br> DIANE CHAMBERLAIN is the international bestselling author of more than twenty novels, including <i>The Dream Daughter, Necessary Lies, </i> and <i>The Silent Sister</i>.
