Lucinda's Luck

Young and inexperienced in the ways of love Lucinda Farrow finds her life turned upside down after the loss of her father. Destitute she and her mother must make a new life for themselves and only the kindness of their beloved housekeeper seem to offer any hope as she whisks them into jobs at the small restaurant in the tiny town of Biders Clump. Struggling to find herself in a whole new world, Lucinda finds her life made more difficult by her mother's inability to adjust to her new environment and accept her meager existence, as they depend on the kindness of others to make a living. After the loss of his sister, Willem Druthers has inherited a farm, a niece and a nephew but little in his life has prepared him to deal with the after effects of the childrens' grief. Desperately trying to eek a living from a farm that seems incapable of growing anything but onions, he longs for a better way to provide for his small family. His once a week excursion to the town eatery is the bright point in his life, doubly so when a pretty dark-eye woman comes to work at the Mill. Will fate conspire to keep two dreamers apart, or will circumstances bring them together despite all odds?
