Living under the thumb of her dismissive father and cruel sister, Audrey yearns for love and purpose, though ashamed of the facial scars she keeps hidden. As her sister's threats become increasingly malicious and Audrey's father arranges for her to marry a man twice her age, she desperately flees home and, after narrowly surviving starvation and illness, finds a safe haven at Dericott Castle. She discovers joy in her work at Dericott, along with a growing affection for the castle's lord, Edwin. But vindictive schemes threaten her newfound freedom, and Audrey must find the strength to fight for her happiness. This second volume in best-seller Dickerson's Dericott Tales series follows two narrators who overcome self-doubt in accepting their physical differences and gain the confidence to love while finding solace in their Christianity. While the characters seem flat and the plot devices verge on repetitive, Dickerson writes a well-developed and wholesome romance between pleasant characters whose happy ending readers will easily root for. Grades 7-10. Copyright 2021 Booklist Reviews.
