Here's a book that is absolutely TOUGH to put down even for a minute. I finished this one very quickly. I am going to be off in a few minutes to read the next volume of this story called "Forge."
This is a story about a girl working as a slave. She finds her owner has passed away. Her owners last will was to set her and her sister, Ruth, free upon her death. Things don't always work like they should and the new owner of the property (the nephew of her deceased owner.) has different ideas. You grow to love Isabel all through the story. It is one of the resiliency of the human soul. It is one of hard work. It will touch your heart. I do not cry easily BUT I cried in this book. I loved this book!
