Between the Rivers

Maggie Lorena Corbinn has always wanted to get an education, marry a man with refinement, and surround herself with interesting people--but her dreams aren't likely to come true in early 20th-century rural North Carolina. When her Aunt Mag arranges for her to attend Baptist Female University, Maggie jumps at the chance. Packing her prized possessions into her steamer trunk, she boards the train for Raleigh. Love, learning, heartbreak, and unexpected events follow Maggie from school to back home between the rivers--and she must make a decision that will change her life forever.
