A Boy To Remember - Cynthia Thomason

Нельзя вечно жить во лжи

Одно волшебное лето - этого хватило, чтобы Алексис Фостер безумно влюбилась в Даниэля Чендлера. А потом она отпустила его, чтобы Даниэль не пожертвовал своими мечтами. Но их страстная связь вспыхивает снова, когда Алекс возвращается на ферму своей семьи... с мощным секретом.

Даниэль, самый молодой сенатор штата Огайо, стремительно продвигается по карьерной лестнице. Он также находит родственную душу в семнадцатилетней дочери Алекс. Алекс должна рассказать ему правду, даже рискуя его политическим будущим... даже если это лишит её двух самых дорогих ей людей.

Cynthia Thomason's heartbreaking story follows a mother's decision between her child and the man she once loved.

Lexis Foster and Daniel Chandler met in a magical summer when they were seventeen years old, an unforgettable time that changed their lives forever. Lexis traveled to Daytona Beach to be with Mark, the man she was backpacking around the United States with after high school; he was a bassist in a popular band. Living it up while visiting Lexis' estimated 147-year-old patriarch, Ford Foster, Mark introduces her to his young cousin Doug Arenberg, known to everyone as 'D.' When D brings along his older brother and best friend Daniel (who has long served his community on the local school board), Lexis finds herself enamored with the quiet and confident Daniel. She falls deeply in love, following him to Delaware, and sharing a childhood love of anime. At the peak of their romance, when Daniel asks Lexis to move in and be his girlfriend, she confesses she cannot do that without sharing a bad secret—she and Mark are in fact together, her purpose for this pre-planned trip had been to glimpse a glimpse of Mark's ex-girlfriend Carly, who had gone missing under suspicious circumstances. The inevitable breakup devastates Lexis; she leaves Daniel, continuing to support Mark and his new girlfriend Cayce. Things are rough for a time, apparently leading to Mark cheating on Lexis multiple times but the relationship eventually stabilizes with her moving back down to her roots to continue her father's legacy of a successful cookie company and visiting frequently. In addition, Lexis begins dating Daniel's would-be fellow state senator brother Warren, and in January 2007 they plan to get married at the small hometown golf club Wayne Country Club. However, on February 8, 2010, Brittany Schlaer receives permission to investigate the disappearance of Carly Olson at Habitat for Humanity in Delaware, resulting in the voluntary return of Carly to their custody after she resurfaced. When questioned, Carly identifies Warren as her abductor and Candice seems to corroborate Carly's story with Evan. Warren confesses that he did indeed assault Carly before he realized how important their marriage would be for them in the future and arranged their deniability by escaping the scene to give both miscarriages and glorifying the imminent engagement. Carly moves to New Jersey and informs her world at large that Warren abused her almost incriminating detail for family convenience and Lexis and Warren will pursue divorce shortly after beginning custody battles until Lexis is eventually awarded sole physical custody of both her unborn child Jackson and Marilyn and financial custody. Lexis has married Daniel by then but shortly before Jackson's birth she gives birth to a daughter Zoe, the father being Daniel's younger brother who is having trouble.When Jackson is two months old, Warren kidnaps Zoe and attempts to indoctrinate her into a sexual and emotional dependency to obtain custody; he has continued the abuse against Carly since returning home to Florida. Martinsquil, now working security for his brother on fundraising campaigns for state attorney generals office (this suspect operation began on March 19) orchestrates her escape with the aid of Brittany under the assumption that she has heard the abducted children sing Danny Elfman's Pirate Jenny by heavy guitar from Marilyn's parlor radio and gets her baby girl back unhurt in exchange for the information. Zoe is torn between the two worlds, one of sugarcoating kidnapping as fun and Toronto and the one where she actualiperformed her singing together with Daddy. Later, Watson leads The State Attorney's Unit and SEAL Team demonstrating the rank insignia of the United States Marine Corps when he arrests Warren for the kidnapping and re-abuse of Carly and formalizes an agreement on Joanne and Dickhaut to have speak to former members of the Chaillot Surge computational Anticipatory Rare Earth Initiative and Allie Ruth for an implied reference for Zoe to Latner.
