Date: 02 7, 2014
When Walt returns to his small hometown in Georgia it is with the expectation that he will take his place in his father's law firm. On his first day home he meets Stella a young black woman who is working as a maid in his family's home. Two people couldn't be more unalike. His father a senator,rich and patriarch one of the town's leading families. Stella poor and black living with her mother and sisters barely surviving on the salaries they make as domestics.In spite of their differences these two find love. A very dangerous love because their story takes place in 1961 and if discovered could have dire consequences for Stella. When their romance is discovered by Walt's ex girl friend(who by the way will do anything to marry him) he has to allow himself to be blackmailed into marriage with the ex to keep Stella safe. The story is indeed a sad commentary on our nations past but the stuff that romance novels are made of. Two people overcoming seemingly insurmountable odds to find their HEA. Loved hating the ex she was one sneaky conniving woman.
