Moondrop Miracle

By Jennifer Lamont Leo

Description:

Chicago, 1928. Pampered socialite Connie Shepherd lives the kind of glossy life other women read about in the society pages. Engaged to a handsome financier, she spends her days and nights in a dizzying social round. When eccentric Aunt Pearl, an amateur chemist, offers her an unusual wedding present—the formula for a home-brewed skin tonic—Connie laughs it off. But when the Great Depression flings her privileged world into chaos and rocks her marriage to the core, will Aunt Pearl's strange gift provide the key to survival for Connie and her baby?

By turns heartbreaking and hope-filled, Moondrop Miracle tells the story of an extraordinary and unforgettable woman whose determination to succeed changes her life forever.

Book Takeaway:

When one dream dies, another blossoms.

Why the author wrote this book:

Today's world is just as volatile, unpredictable, and frightening as the Great Depression--maybe even more so. The faith and strength of character needed to survive then is needed more than ever today.
