Description

In the small Tennessee town of Vader, Esme Crabb knows that intelligence and determination may not be enough to lift her impoverished family out of hardship. Plainspoken, practical, and fiercely ambitious, she sets her sights on Cleavis Rhy, the town’s wealthiest—and most elusive—bachelor, believing marriage may be her best chance at a better life. As their lives become entwined, this poignant and unconventional romance explores the tensions between love and ambition, poverty and privilege, and the difficult choices required to escape the circumstances into which one is born.
