Adam's Bride

Adam Johnson's brother, Samuel, was killed by a Polish immigrant. Adam feels he was to blame, but in his guilt and anger, he has turned against all immigrants. Even when he rescues lovely Lidia Kowalski from a rabid dog and realizes he's attractd to her, he doesn't relent. After all, Lidia is one of the hated Polish, and they're all alike, aren't they? Then Adam is injured and Lidia and her brother, Kody help him, even quiting their own jobs to harvest the sap from Adam's maple trees. But Adam can't forget his brother's death, and it stands between any developing relationship with Lidia. Lisa Harris' Adam's Bride is an indictment against all prejudice. It's an intriguing story with complex characters struggling with very real problems. I enjoyed it very much.
