Publisher's Synopsis
Sadie Sillsby loves her job as assistant to the matron at the Raystown Home for Orphan and Friendless Children. Day after day, she pours her energy into the boys and girls who live there even while dreaming of the day she'll marry her beau, Blaine, and have a family of her own. But when the long-time matron of the home surprises everyone by announcing her engagement, Sadie finds herself next in line for the job.
Growing up as an orphan herself, Sadie isn't quite sure she has what it takes to oversee all aspects of the home-financial, legal, and logistical. But there is an even bigger issue: the matron cannot be married. Can she abandon the place she loves to be the with the person she loves? Before she can make a decision toward one path or the other, the future of the home begins to look bleak. Will Sadie be able to turn things around before the home is forced to close its doors forever?
