For readers who love a heartwarming romance and a rich historical setting comes a tale of a young woman with a heavy burden, the International Cotton Exposition, and the pursuit of true love.

Eighteen-year-old Laurel Millard, youngest of seven children, is expected to stay home and "take care of Mama" by her older siblings, but Laurel has dreams of starting her own family. Operating a silk loom at the Atlanta Exposition will give her the chance to capture the heart of a man wealthy enough to take care of Laurel and any children she might bear, as well as her mother.

Langdon Rochester's parents have given him an ultimatum: settle down with a wife or lose his family inheritance. At the Exposition, Langdon meets Laurel. Marrying her would satisfy his parents's command, she would look lovely on his arm for social events, and in her besotted state, he believes she would overlook him continuing pursuing rowdy adventures with his unmarried buddies. Langdon decides to woo Laurel. Willie Sharp is not well-off and must take on an extra job at the Atlanta Exposition as a security guard. When mischief-makers cause trouble in the Women's Building, Willie is put in charge of keeping the building secure. He enjoys visiting with Laurel, who seems like the little sister he never had, but his feelings for Laurel change to something much deeper. Can Willie convince Laurel that he can give her better life--even with so little to offer?

Quality, good looking shoes!
Size: 8.5, Color: Green
Absolutely perfect fit, design, and color. I'm so pleased with these sandals and as always with this brand, I am not in anyway disappointed. These shoes are so comfortable right out of the box. They clean up very nicely, and last forever. I am so glad I got these before they were sold out.

UGG Comfort Without the Premium Price
Size: 9, Color: Beige, Size: 9, Color: Beige
These sandals are super cute and incredibly comfortable. They have that classic UGG look and feel, but at a much more approachable price point. The footbed is cushioned and supportive, making them easy to wear for extended periods. The straps feel secure without rubbing, and the overall construction feels solid and well made. They’re lightweight but still have a sturdy sole with good traction. They pair effortlessly with casual outfits and have that relaxed, elevated vibe UGG is known for—just without the higher price tag. A great value for both style and comfort.

Ugg comfy shoes
Size: 7, Color: Black
So comfortable and cute as well. I wore these the first time and had to have everyone touch them to see how the sole would squish. Fit well, and are lightweight as well.
