Black and Blue: A Novel Anna Quindlen
Random House 1998-01-24 0375500510 / 9780375500510 Hardcover Used: Good Hardcover
For eighteen years Fran Benedetto kept her secret, hid her bruises. She stayed with Bobby because she wanted her son to have a father, and because, in spite of everything, she loved him. Then one night, when she saw the look on her ten-year-old son's face, Fran finally made a choice - and ran for both their lives. Now she is starting over in a city far from home, far from Bobby. In this place she uses a name that isn't hers, watches over her son, and tries to forget. For the woman who now calls herself Beth, every day is a chance to heal, to put together the pieces of her shattered self. And every day she waits for Bobby to catch up to her. Bobby always said he would never let her go, and despite the ingenuity of her escape, Fran Benedetto is certain of one thing: It is only a matter of time.

Every Last One Anna Quindlen
Random House 2010 0091936934 / 9780091936938 Paperback Used: Like New Paperback
Mary Beth has built her life around her close knit and much loved family: husband Glen, a successful ophthalmologist, their beautiful and talented 17 year old daughter Ruby, and 14 year old twins Alex and Matt. The Lathams lead busy everyday lives, filled with familiar domestic detail and only faintly troubled by Matt's recent diagnosis of mild depression and Ruby's split from her long time boyfriend Kiernan. On New Year's Eve the family goes to an annual neighbourhood party and Mary Beth and Glen return home in the early hours happy but slightly the worse for wear. They go to bed only to be disturbed by the noise of the children and Glen goes downstairs to investigate. The shocking violence of that night's events shatters the family and Mary Beth is left to face an uncertain future and to try to somehow rebuild her life. Every Last One is an unforgettable portrait of a mother and a family and of the brutal consequences of seemingly inconsequential actions.
