- Synopsis
- The year is 1910, and the four Purcell sisters have only each other. Their mother has died, leaving them orphans in a rambling country estate. But with the help of the Mackenzies-- heir guardian and his family, whom the sisters come to love in very different ways--Sarah, Frances, Julia, and Gwen find the courage to follow their own paths in a world that is rapidly changing. Avid readers and fans of historical-fiction classics will love these spirited heroines--named the Little Women of our times by the Times of London--and will be thoroughly absorbed by their intertwining tales, full of feistiness, creativity, and young romance. Frances has managed to take care of her three younger sisters when her mother died, to keep their estate from being sold, and to win a place at a famous art school. Why can't she manage to convince Gabriel Mackenzie that she never intends to marry--and that her painting is all that matters?
