Book excerpt: Beautiful Maddie Quinn grew up dreaming of a better life, as did most Depression-era teenagers. She married in 1946 at the age of eighteen in pursuit of this dream. By 1960, however, she knew their marriage was lost, but with two children, ages nine and ten, what was she to do. Maddie was working as a waitress at a high-end restaurant to earn extra money. She met Mr. Jason Granger , a wealthy businessman and a frequent patron. Jason was also determined to have Maddie for his wife. Five short years later, Maddie divorced her husband and married the also newly divorced Jason. They were very much in love. For the first time Maddie could dream about how wonderful and exciting her life and the lives of her children were going to be. She was married to the man of her dreams whom she loved with all her being. However, life does not always live up to one’s expectations.
