title: The Bitter and the Sweet
author: Adams, Amelia C.
description: A year ago, Sarah Palmer was utterly humiliated in every possible way while visiting her cousin in Denver. She vowed she'd never go back to that awful place, but then she gets a letter telling her that her aunt has fallen ill and would like to see her . . . in Denver.
  Stephen Howard feels terrible for the way his family treated Miss Palmer the previous summer, and wishes he could do something to make up for it. When she returns to Denver to visit her aunt, he realizes that this could be his chance.
  Two people from two entirely different walks of life, so different and yet so much the same. As they navigate all the roadblocks keeping them apart, will they learn to endure the bitter so they can eventually taste the sweet?
