About THE ACCIDENTAL MARRIAGE:
Publication Date: December 10, 2013
ISBN: 9781462113743
Publisher: Cedar Fort Publishing
Nina Rushforth was born with a silver spoon caught
in her throat. She and her father have mapped out a future that includes a
brilliant legal career, a marriage to an equally stellar attorney or Wall
Street whiz kid, and eventually the production of three perfect children. A
semester at St. Andrew's University in Scotland, was part of the plan, but
falling in love with a handsome missionary was not.
Six months later, after Elliot returns
from his mission and after a tumultuous courtship, Nina finds herself teaching
at a junior high school, learning to keep house in a minuscule apartment, and
living with a man who doesn't know any more about being married than she does.
Intimacy, cooking, laundry, lesson plans, and a tug-of-war with a possessive
mother-in-law prove to be more overwhelming than Nina can successfully manage.
The newlyweds awaken to realize the head on the adjacent pillow belongs to a
stranger.
This novel captures the heartbreak of
young love caught in the turbulent social crosscurrents of the 70's, at a time
when brave women struggled to find dignity and equality in the workplace, as
well as peace at home.
And now for the cover:
