Product Description

Product Description

It is the summer of 1959 and Mariette Puttnam has just graduated from boarding school. When she returns to her privileged life at home, she isn't sure where life will take her. More schooling? A job? Marriage? Nothing feels right. How could she know that the answer is waiting for her within the narrow stairwell of her father's apparel factory, exactly between the third and fourth floors?
In this unique and tender story of an unlikely romance, popular author Eva Marie Everson takes readers on a journey through the heart of a young woman bound for the unknown. Readers will experience the joys of new love, the perseverance of true friendship, and the gift of forgiveness that comes from a truly fine life.

4.0 out of 5 stars satisfying reading 7 Jun 2011
By Maria TOP 500 REVIEWER
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is about a young woman from an educated & wealthy family as she leaves school & has to decide what to do with her life. Does she follow either of the paths laid out for her by her parents or find her own way? How can she do this without hurting any of her loved ones? A 'coming of age ' novel with a message that demonstrates all is never easy for anyone. There is a Christian leaning to this book which will not please some readers but will be enjoyed by others, as with all books. Certainly this is one of the books which touches on real life as there are some very up to date situations which arise. I will read more from this author.

I really wanted to reach the end of the book, but at he same time taking my time to savour the story and all the shenanigans along the way. God surely was on their side!

For too long I had existed, not really going anywhere and not standing still. I just lived, always in search of something that seemed just out of my range of vision. Or, if I thought I could see it-this elusive thing I needed to be complete-it was slightly out of reach. &quote;
