Not yet fourteen, Lendy Mickelvin has experienced a lifetime of tragedy and loss—first her parents, now her elder sister, who raised her. Lendy finds herself being whisked away to the small community of Mint Spring, Virginia, to make her home with relatives she has never known. Dottie and Fred Reeves have the financial resources and community standing to make a difference in Lendy’s life and to afford her opportunities of which she could only have dreamed before. Soon she meets Dale Henderson, a local boy whose good looks and personable ways quickly charm her. With Dottie and Fred backing her, and Dale at her side, Lendy flourishes beyond even her own expectations. Set in the rural Shenandoah Valley of the 1960s against a backdrop of unique and sometimes funny characters, Lendy’s story, told in her own voice, reveals much about life’s hardships and the tenacity of the human spirit.
