About
What will it take for a once-privileged young woman to make her way in the world?It isn't Cassie Haddon's fault that she has reached the age of twenty-five without possessing any useful skills. Until the War Between the States, she always had servants. Since then, she and her mother have been forced to rely on family to care for them. But now the well of human kindness has run dry--and Cassie must find work to support them.
Unfortunately, leaving the past behind is easier said than done, and Cassie must summon all of her courage and wits to convince local restaurateur and grocer Jacob West that she's exactly what his business needs.
With her signature sweet romance, Ann Shorey weaves a tale of two people from different backgrounds finding common ground and the hope of a bright future together.

My review;
Cassie Haddon has grown up with a life filled with servants to wait on her, now because of the War Between the States she is left with nothing, not even a skill that she can use to help herself. Like many other well to do women she has to take charge of her future and start her life over. The author captures the struggles and the fear of the next day will bring. I give this book a 4/5. I was given this by Revell Book Publishers for the purpose of a review and all opinions are my own.
Thank you for your review, Debra! Blessings to you. :)
