Threads of a Winter Orphan
Sybil Cook
Edwin Blake, a wealthy factory owner, is troubled by the stark divide between rich and poor. He seeks to use his wealth to make a difference and, when he meets Carolyn, he’s struck by her strength and dignity in the face of adversity. Though initially wary of his kindness, Carolyn can’t help but be moved by his genuine care.
As their lives become more entwined amidst a bitter winter, Carolyn faces the challenge of reconciling her growing feelings for Edwin with the divide between their worlds. Can she trust in the possibility of a future together, or will the barriers of class and society prove too great to overcome? Christmas brings a moment of truth, and Carolyn must decide if love is worth the risk of everything she’s ever known.
