The story follows several women as they become accustomed to their changing circumstances: Rachel, a gentlewoman who has fallen on difficult times; Mercy, the headmistress of the girls' school at Ivy Cottage dealing with a new group of unruly students; and Jane, a recently widowed woman working hard to keep her inn afloat. Each woman faces her new challenges with grace and faith."--<b><i>Publishers Weekly</i></b><br/><br/>"The second book in the Tales from Ivy Hill series begins the moment the first book ends.
