Grace Amid Darkness

Reads

Anna is a rebel in a traditional world. She is an abolitionist living in slave-holding Virginia. Adventure and exploration call to her, she has no desire to one day be a planter’s wife. When Aunt Margaret moves close by with an intent to mold Anna into a proper Southern lady, Anna must find the courage to stand her ground. Anna is anything but traditional, but will bucking the system cost too much? Will her actions bring harm instead of salvation to those she cares about? Grace Amid Darkness is the first book in the Finding My Way series, where strong girls fight the system. If you like period books with compelling characters who stand up for what they believe in, you’ll love MJ Melvin’s 19th-century tale of a girl who puts herself in danger to defend what she believes is just. Buy Grace Amid Darkness to discover if she succeeds in improving the lives of her family’s slaves while pursuing a life of adventure.
