"This beautifully crafted tale vividly portrays Southern life for a young girl in the nineteen forties and beyond…Sandra E. Graham's talent for storytelling makes writing look deceptively simply as she weaves together the threads of Nicolina's life and times in this novel…Certainly a book to curl up with on a cold fall evening. By the end of it, Nicolina feels like she's a part of your family…such is the place where she carves a niche in the reader's mind and heart."
—Kay Elizabeth, editor, The Megaphone Magazine
"A wonderful, well-written story of real people who come alive to live in your memory and heart."
—Christina Cordaire, author, Forgiving Hearts

Close your eyes and take yourself back to the early 1900s. Land is vast, homes are overflowing with families, farming is not a hobby but a way of life, and there is no guarantee of tomorrow. Thirteen-year-old Nicolina is forced from the only life she has ever known with her family to marry and live with hateful Jack Swaney. Her faith in God keeps her strong as she encounters tragic obstacles throughout her life. A widowed seventeen-year-old Nicolina returns home to find her family has moved on. In her journey to find them, she also finds a new life, herself, and the love of her life—Amos Jakey Foster. During troubling times throughout her life, she is haunted by the image of a young stranger with the bluest eyes she has ever seen. Meeting Amos Foster makes her wonder if those eyes were one and the same of the image she felt had watched over her for many years. The story of Nicolina and Amos is one of true love and real life. The characters are so real the reader will become submerged in their lives. Vivid images and raw emotion will touch anyone who turns the pages.
