AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Childhood romance rejected but found again once life's lessons are learned. Mira Mansfield, headstrong adopted daughter of Howard Mansfield, refuses to marry her childhood companion but elopes with another. He proves, too late, to have been interested only in her fortune and years of suffering and poverty follow. Long after his death their daughter, Faith, meets her mother's old suitor on the street and brings him home ... Slight; predictable. (PB)
