The Most Wanted by Jacquelyn Mitchard
The long awaited second novel from Jacquelyn Mitchard, author of the million-copy selling The Deep End of the Ocean. Intensely erotic, The Most Wanted is also a romance in the epic tradition, about love that can come along once in a lifetime and challenge all of us to break the rules. Arley Mowbray, only fourteen years old, is dreaming her life away in South Texas when -- defying all earthly logic -- she falls in love, at hurricane force, with an outlaw and secretly becomes his wife. Public-aid lawyer Annie Singer, whose own careful, well-ordered life is catapulted into change from the moment she meets Arley, will become first the girl's advocate and defender, then the closest thing to a loving mother Arley will ever have. What happens to Arley and her husband, Dillon LeGrande, is the stuff of legend. He will break out of prison on a terrifying errand, but is it to claim his wife and their baby daughter or to destroy them? His love will put them into nearly unthinkable danger -- danger Arley and even Annie will find too compelling to ignore, too seductive to flee. No other writer has Mitchard's fierce, brave and tender insights into the bonds of mothers and daughters. Larger than life, yet the very stuff of life itself, The Most Wanted is the tour de force that the many who treasure The Deep End of the Ocean have been waiting for.
