No Love Lost

NO LOVE LOST is Helen Van Slyke at her best: a splendid family story spanning three generations of extraordinary and very different wives, written with Van Slykeâ€™s keen understanding of the conflicts that beset the modern woman.

America was struggling through the Depression when Pauline Thresher, the beautiful wife of a powerful banker, left her husband of twenty-five years because she could no longer bear his flagrant infidelity. Sara Thresher, her wise and compassionate mother-in-law, understood too well that wealth and position could not compensate for marriage to a cold, domineering man. She chose to go with Pauline, even though it meant a cruel and perhaps irrevocable estrangement from her own son. But Lindsay, Paulineâ€™s lovely, willful daughter, stood on the threshold of a different worldâ€”which would demand all her resilience and determination if she was to survive as her own woman.

The critical people in their lives are James, Lindsayâ€™s sensitive and idealistic brother, whose search for love ends in a bizarre transatlantic correspondence; Geoff, Lindsayâ€™s â€œperfectâ€ husband, who has to choose between two women and learn to live with his decision; Adele, her childhood friend, who married Lindsayâ€™s father and covets her husband; Reginald, the handsome English chauffeur, who teaches Lindsay that love goes beyond class boundaries; and S.P., Lindsayâ€™s daughter, whose liberated ideals cannot save her from her fate.

Penetrating, tender, uncompromising, NO LOVE LOST is the crowning achievement of a legendary writer whose romantic fiction has drawn millions of devoted followers.
