书籍简介
"阿贝是一位精湛的讲故事者。细节丰富，感人至深"。纽约时报》畅销书《第五大道的狮子》作者菲奥娜-戴维斯（Fiona Davis
"这是我有幸读过的文笔优美的书之一。这是一部华丽、惊人的小说，我不会很快忘记。艾伦-玛丽-怀斯曼《孤儿收藏家》纽约时报畅销书作者
这本引人入胜的小说非常适合詹妮弗-奇维利尼和玛丽-本尼迪克特的书迷阅读，它将带您走进当时著名的一对情侣--约翰-雅各布-阿斯特和玛德琳-福雷斯--在泰坦尼克号上的求爱丑闻和灾难性蜜月。这本历史小说以丰富的细节为读者讲述了一段惊心动魄的故事，在翻过一页后，读者仍会久久不能忘怀。
玛德琳-塔尔梅奇-弗莱斯年仅 17 岁，就吸引了约翰-雅各布-"杰克"-阿斯特的注意。玛德琳美丽、聪慧，是实实在在的上流社会人士，但阿斯特夫妇的身份却截然不同。杰克的母亲是阿斯特夫人，她是美国皇室成员，也是纽约令人敬畏的社交名媛。杰克潇洒勤奋，是美西战争的英雄、发明家和精明的商人。尽管他们的年龄相差 29 岁，而且杰克还闹出了离婚的丑闻，但玛德琳还是一头栽进了爱河，并成为媒体喜爱的报道对象。
在埃及度蜜月期间，这对新婚夫妇终于从摄影师和记者的镜头中找到了一丝安宁。玛德真正感受到了自己的存在--而且还幸福地怀上了孩子。这对夫妇计划在 1912 年春天乘坐一艘豪华的新远洋轮船回国。当邮轮在 4 月 14 日午夜时撞上冰山时，人们并没有立即感到恐慌。快速、先进的泰坦尼克号似乎不会沉没。当杰克把玛德琳扶上救生艇时，他向她保证，很快就会在纽约见到她......
四个月后，在阿斯特夫妇的第五大道豪宅里，丧偶的玛德琳生下了他们的儿子。灾难发生后，媒体将她捧上了贤淑的悲剧女英雄的宝座。但玛德琳重要的决定仍摆在面前：是接受被赋予的角色，还是开辟自己的非凡之路......
"这是一个感人至深、引人入胜、荡气回肠的爱情故事，它将使历史小说迷们大饱眼福，也将使我们这些永远为泰坦尼克号着迷的人陶醉其中"。纽约时报》畅销书《当我们年轻时》和《勇敢》的作者哈泽尔-盖诺
"这是一部引人入胜的小说，讲述的细节既令人心碎，又栩栩如生。第二任阿斯特夫人》是历史小说中扣人心弦、令人难以抗拒的作品"。《纽约时报》畅销书《生存萨凡纳》和《成为刘易斯夫人》的作者帕蒂-卡拉汉
"Abé is an exquisite storyteller. Rich in detail and deeply moving." –Fiona Davis, New York Times bestselling author of The Lions of Fifth Avenue
"One of the most beautifully written books I’ve ever had the pleasure to read. A gorgeous, phenomenal novel I won’t soon forget.” —Ellen Marie Wiseman New York Times bestselling Author of The Orphan Collector
Perfect for fans of Jennifer Chiaverini and Marie Benedict, this riveting novel takes you inside the scandalous courtship and catastrophic honeymoon aboard the Titanic of the most famous couple of their time—John Jacob Astor and Madeleine Force. Told in rich detail, this novel of sweeping historical fiction will stay with readers long after turning the last page.
Madeleine Talmage Force is just seventeen when she attracts the attention of John Jacob “Jack” Astor. Madeleine is beautiful, intelligent, and solidly upper-class, but the Astors are in a league apart. Jack’s mother was the Mrs. Astor, American royalty and New York’s most formidable socialite. Jack is dashing and industrious—a hero of the Spanish-American war, an inventor, and a canny businessman. Despite their twenty-nine-year age difference, and the scandal of Jack’s recent divorce, Madeleine falls headlong into love—and becomes the press’s favorite target.
On their extended honeymoon in Egypt, the newlyweds finally find a measure of peace from photographers and journalists. Madeleine feels truly alive for the first time—and is happily pregnant. The couple plans to return home in the spring of 1912, aboard an opulent new ocean liner. When the ship hits an iceberg close to midnight on April 14th, there is no immediate panic. The swift, state-of-the-art RMS Titanic seems unsinkable. As Jack helps Madeleine into a lifeboat, he assures her that he’ll see her soon in New York…
Four months later, at the Astors’ Fifth Avenue mansion, a widowed Madeleine gives birth to their son. In the wake of the disaster, the press has elevated her to the status of virtuous, tragic heroine. But Madeleine’s most important decision still lies ahead: whether to accept the role assigned to her, or carve out her own remarkable path…
“A touching, compelling, and haunting love story that will delight fans of historical fiction and enthrall those of us for whom the Titanic will always fascinate.” –Haze Gaynor, New York Times bestselling author of When We Were Young and Brave
“An engaging novel told with both heartbreaking care and vivid detail. The Second Mrs. Astor is historical fiction at its gripping and irresistible best.” –Patti Callahan, New York Times bestselling author of Surviving Savannah and Becoming Mrs. Lewis
