Lorena St. John and her two sisters had a very difficult childhood. Their beloved father died after being financially ruined. Their mother re-married but it seems that their stepfather was a very cold and greedy man who seemed unable to comfort the children. When Lorena reaches the age that he considered to be proper to get married he betroths her to an equally cold man. However, Lorena doesn't accept her faith without fight and upon her arrival at her fiancé's house Lorena and her fiancé have their first dispute which has unforeseen consequences leading Lorena to meet Warren Rawlins.A wonderful love story that offers a bit more that the usual romances of this genre. Basically it is the story of a young women who tries to discover who she really is and by doing so she fights against the conventions of her time. She tries to claim the right of choice in every aspect of her life.Warren Rawlins tries in his own way to reinforce her attempts. Of course he is absolutely adorable but compared to Lorena I couldn't really decide who the lead character is.A well written love story that will keep your interest.
