About this ebook

Amid 1860s Europe where manufacturing workers live in poverty and masters rule, Margaret Hale decides to marry the man she has been secretly in love with for some time: the kindhearted cotton mill owner, John Thornton. Against the wishes of both her family and his disapproving mother, Margaret invests in Johns mill and begins preparing to return with him to the smoky industrial town of Milton. As the train pulls out of the station, Margaret looks forward to beginning a new life with her fianc. But she is about to discover that her desire to start over may be more difficult than she imagined.

After Margaret marries John, they both attempt to change the lives of masters and workers by demonstrating empathy for the less fortunate. As she learns the power of mercy and forgiveness, Margaret must still deal with her disapproving mother-in-law and attempt to clear her brothers name after he becomes involved in a naval mutiny. Will Margaret and John succeed in achieving their goals or will the suffering continue?

Milton shares the historical tale of a cotton mill master and his wife as they attempt to overcome the poverty and disease that haunts Europe during the Industrial Revolution.

Author

Tracy Lynn

Tracy Lynn is a pseudonym. Liz Braswell is a real person. After the sort of introverted childhood you would expect from a writer, Liz earned a degree in Egyptology at Brown University and then promptly spent the next ten years producing video games. Finally she caved in to fate and wrote Snow, her first novel, followed by the Nine Lives of Chloe King series under her real name, because by then the assassins hunting her were all dead. Liz lives in Brooklyn with her husband, two children, and the occasional luna moth.
