An excellent story about a woman named Elizabeth who had just lost her husband and baby girl to influenza.Expecting to die too she just waited out the arrival of death. But instead, God intervenes and sends her a gentleman looking for someone to help him take care of his young motherless stepsisters. The infant girl will die unless Elizabeth can help with feeding the child. To be able to live together without causing an uproar in the town,Elizabeth and Jake marry. They feel that they will stay together until the baby no longer needs a wet nurse and then they can get an annulment. Love finds a way of creeping slowly into their lives and so the story unfolds. This was a wonderful, heartwarming story.
