A Heart for Milton: A Tale from North and South by Trudy Brasure
When Margaret Hale hastily rejected the wealthy industrialist's fervent marriage proposal, she could not have foreseen the events that would lead her to change her mind and open her heart. But was it too late now to let the handsome, brooding mill owner know? Based on the novel "North and South" by Elizabeth Gaskell, this book weaves a change near the end of the original plot to create a romantic continuation to an enduring love story.

This variation of "North and South" is written with a special appreciation for the way Gaskell shows both John and Margaret's progressive path from their initial rigid viewpoints to an enlarged understanding of the other side's perspective, values, and experience. Challenging her readers and her characters to see past the outward differences of class, position, gender, and religion, Gaskell reveals how much we all have in common.

"A Heart for Milton" brings to life all of Gaskell's rich characters: Nicholas Higgins, Hannah Thornton, Henry Lennox, Mr. Bell and others. But at its core, this tale unfolds the joy, hope, passion, and fulfillment of the love forged between John Thornton and Margaret Hale as the reader follows their journey through the uncertainties of their engagement to the trials encountered in their first year of marriage…and beyond.
