A New Graft on the Family Tree

A New Graft on the Family Tree

Pansy

1902

Novels

Louise Morgan arrives at her husband's family farmhouse with City ways in her trunk and hope in her heart. The Morgans are salt-of-the-earth people who work their land and worship simply. Louise has been raised in comfort; her mother-in-law wanted Lewis to marry a hardworking local girl. What follows is the quiet, often painful drama of a young wife trying to find her place among people who see her as an outsider. She wonders if there will ever be room for her in this family that operated perfectly well before she arrived. It's a story about belonging, about the things we carry from our pasts into new lives, and about whether love alone can bridge the gap between who we were and who we're becoming. The faith here isn't preachy; it's the quiet engine beneath Louise's determination to make peace.
