But Becca's scheming younger sister, Ellen, upsets their plans with a shocking announcement: she is pregnant with George's child. Shock and disillusionment sour Becca's good nature, but it is partly restored when Jethro, newly returned to the district, begins to pay her attention and eventually proposes marriage. He has inherited a nearby cottage from his aunt, and has plans to build a business specialising in furniture. While Becca and Jethro run their thriving business, Ellen and George have too many children and not enough money. The needy Ellen is forced to accept the charity that Becca offers, but it seems the two sisters will not be true friends again. Especially as George remains convinced he married the wrong sister . . .

Raised by an undiagnosed mentally ill mother, Michele Elizabeth reveals the bizarre underworld she endured in this enthralling memoir. Everyone saw a perfect family. Many saw a girl's privileged and popular life. Behind closed doors existed something far more sinister. Demonic ideologies, sexual philosophy, family conspiracies and religious indoctrination dripped into the fertile mind of a young girl, whose only real dream was to be loved by her mother. It's when Elizabeth becomes a woman wherein the truth shatters her old identity. What almost destroys her turns into a life-altering adventure as Elizabeth distills out the delusions of the past and ultimately claims her individuality. A unique and triumphant tale of nonfiction-at once unashamedly honest and excruciatingly healing-it's a journey with the power to liberate others.
