WHEN YOU WERE MINE (Touchstone; March 2011; 978-1-4391-5485-4) is bestselling author and “reading group goddess” (St. Paul Pioneer Press) Elizabeth Noble’s powerful new story about first loves, best friends, and the true meaning of “happily ever after.”
Susannah is about to turn forty. She has been living with Doug for nine years, acting as sometime stepmother to his three unappreciative children, and wondering why she really doesn’t mind when he sometimes sleeps in his study. Then Susannah has a brief chance encounter with Rob—her high school sweetheart and love of her life. There’s no band on his ring finger, and Susannah’s long-buried fantasies unexpectedly turn into reality when, weeks later, the phone rings. Susannah’s world is rocked by her rekindled feelings for Rob, and her life is turned totally upside down when her best friend Amelia is diagnosed with cancer. Soon, the revelation of Rob’s recent marriage leads to a quarrel between Susannah and Amelia—driving a wedge between the women just when they need each other most. Facing the toughest choices of her life, Susannah must finally test herself and discover how profoundly and deeply connected she is to those around her.
Elin Hilderbrand, author of The Island says, “[When You Were Mine] combines two of my favorite things: a sexy, heart wrenching love story and a rich and nuanced friendship between two unforgettable women. Every detail is just right; the end result is a book that creates a nearly-impossible-to-achieve cocktail of emotional maturity and pure fun.”
