Abigail Mary Vaughn: In her youth, Abigail dreamed of having her own family, but caring for her elderly parents, as well as working as a teacher to help with finances, ended that dream. Her parents are now dead and she's faced with the reality of her dismal existence. After reading Mr. Samson's advertisement in the Philadelphia Inquirer, she garners enough courage to respond. Since she is considered an old maid at the age of thirty-eight, she'll more than likely spend the rest of her life in gut-wrenching loneliness unless she does something unconventional.
MY REVIEW:
I cannot RAVE enough about this story. I normally do not like to read period piece but this caught my eye since I adopted three children at once. All the characters in this story steal your heart right from the start & hold it all the way through. Don't want to give anything away but have tissues ready for one part tears at your heart fiercely. A must read.
