Title: Beyond mere words
Description: SHE WAS JUST A SEAMSTRESS FROM LITTLE ITALY

But Francesca Rasera had big dreams ... her own drapery-and-fabric store. Handsome attorney Adam Pearce offered his legal expertise--and his love. Proud, hardworking Francy brought him down to earth, made him feel human again.

Francy knew the fantasy couldn't last. They were worlds apart. She'd never finished high school. Nor, to her secret sorrow, could she read a book or a newspaper.

When Adam announced his bid for public office, Francy knew she'd fail as a running mate. What congressman wanted a wife who couldn't read?
