SYNOPSIS: Molly Gibson lives alone with her father, until he decides to remarry a widow, Clare Kirkpatrick. Molly is a strong-willed, yet kind girl, and strives to get along with her stepmother, although they are at odds right from the start. When Molly's stepsister Cynthia is brought into the picture, Molly finds her to be a friend and confidante until Cynthia becomes engaged to Molly's friend Roger Hamley, whom Molly idolizes. Afterward, there are several misunderstandings and revelations, leaving Molly reeling in their wake.
AUNT SHARON'S TAKE: I loved this book, and would recommend it to anyone, both for its story, and its lovable characters. However, I listened to the audiobook, which may have been easier to understand than the printed form, so I might suggest it to older readers, if only based on reading difficulty.
