Harvest Of The Heart

Description for HARVEST OF THE HEART by May Mellinger:

This is a love story---in fact, two love stories.

Can one woman who has known perfect love early in her life ever achieve it again?

This was the question Starr Cooper asked herself.  Daughter of a courageous hard-working mother and an unambitious father, Starr early out grew the dubious "advantages" of Angello Street in the little California town.  Through her love for Jeff Mayfield, a young oil geologist unhappily married to an alcoholic wife, she achieved a different world, and there she met and married her old high-school "ideal,"  Dashell Taylor, only son of one of Statsville's leading wealthy families.  But their happiness ended with tragic suddenness, leaving Starr widowed and expecting her baby, in the bleak and unloving household Dash's family.  How she succeeded in building a new life for herself, and a new love, climaxes this very moving and dramatic story of today.
