Produktbeschreibung

The Lives Between Us is about family and love. It's about desperate people doing what they need to, to save the ones they love. The Lives Between Us poses the universal question; how far would you go to save the one you love? How far would you go to save the one you love? Reporter Skylar Kendall has run from commitment all her life, pushing people away before they leave her, until her niece worms her way into Skye's heart and settles in tight. Skye relaxes into a career she enjoys and relishes being a doting aunt. Then her niece becomes gravely ill. Unable to bear yet another loss, Skye is determined to find a cure, but the girl's only hope lies in the embryonic stem cell therapy Michigan Senator Edward Hastings repeatedly opposes. When Skye fails to find alternative treatment in time, she vows to end the senator's political career. Curious about the woman behind the scathing articles on his best friend, Mark Dutton pursues Skye. Dating Mark gives her access to Hastings's life and secrets that would launch Skye's career and satisfy her need for retribution... Only she hadn't counted on falling in love. Can she avenge the lives lost to politics at the expense of her new love and friends? "This charming novel gracefully addresses embryonic stem cell research and garnishes it with a powerful, tender romance... The author handles the complexities of science and morality with tremendous care and nuance; there are no hypocrites or villains here, only loving people doing their best in terribly difficult situations. Contemporary romance readers of all political leanings will be enthralled." ~ Publisher's Weekly Bestseller--#1Romance & #2 Political Fiction "This is a fascinating look at the stem cell embryonic/cord controversy and a story that raises many questions, i.e., no matter how you feel about the debate, how far would you go to save a loved one's life? Would you be willing to compromise your principles, manipulate the truth as you knew it, or would you be willing to watch someone you love die without taking every possible step? I found this to be a wonderfully thoughtful and well-written book that would be a fabulous choice for book clubs to read and discuss." ~ Ladies Who Lunch Reviews "With strong characters, exploring a controversial issue, showing how circumstances can seriously alter attitudes and viewpoints, this story has plenty of angst, turmoil and drama. It is an enthralling novel, one of the best I've read - go get yourself a copy, you'll be in for a real treat when you read it!" ~Splashes into Books "Take Jane Green and Jodi Picoult and mix them together, you would have Theresa Rizzo!! Spectacular writer, Astounding story!! "The lives between us" is about the controversial topic of Stem-Cell use, and creating embryos for the purpose of taking their stem cells. I am always touched when an author can write about a tough subject with such heart and kindness. Theresa Rizzo definitely has this talent." ~ Blogger, Annie M
