A Heart for Milton: A Tale from North and South

Since the fateful day of the riot, John Thornton has learned to call a former enemy his friend, has established a workers’ kitchen, and has taken an interest in the education of Boucher’s orphan children. But he believes the woman who helped instigate such broad changes in his outlook has given her heart to another.

When Margaret comes to the Thornton house to say good-bye, an exchange occurs that will begin to untangle the only misunderstanding that keeps them apart….
