Lights of Lowell book 1. Tapestry of Hope weaves together the heartrending and hope-building stories of two young women. Jasmine Wainwright is the sheltered daughter of a Mississippi plantation owner. When her father strikes a deal to sell his cotton to Lowell mills through businessman Bradley Houston, he throws an arranged marriage with Jasmine into the bargain. Kiara O'Neill and her brother escape starvation in Ireland by traveling to America as Bradley Houston's indentured servants. But Bradley has more in mind for Kiara than she wants to imagine. Both women suffer in the home of this unloving husband and merciless master. Will God somehow bring hope to their lives?

WITH SKILL AND EMOTIONAL DEPTH, AUTHORS WEAVE A HEART-TUGGING DRAMA OF FAITH, COURAGE, AND LOVE.
Book One of the Lights of Lowell series. As the only daughter of a wealthy cotton grower, Jasmine Wainwright has lived a sheltered existence, naive to the realities of Southern plantation life beyond her family's home and gardens. But when two brothers from New England visit The Willows, Jasmine's world-and her understanding of the genteel life she's always embraced-is thrown into disarray. A visit to her grandmother's house in the bustling textile town of Lowell, Massachusetts, further opens her eyes.
Carla H. (It took some time to get into the period language. I really enjoyed the book. Found myself easily angered with one paticular character, though it was just the way of those times.
