In Her Darkest Hours, Is He the Man She Needs?
Lily Young longs to find her lost sister or will die trying. Heedless of any danger, she searches logging camps and towns, posing as a photographer’s assistant. And then she arrives in Harrison, Michigan–and the sights of Connell McCormick.
Connell is determined to increase the fortune of his lumber-baron father and figures as long as he’s living an upright life, that’s what matters. But when Lily arrives in town she upends his world, forcing him to confront the truth that dangerous men have gained too much power while good men turn a blind eye.
Vexing but persuasive, Lily soon secures Connell’s help, drawing them ever closer to each other. Will standing for what’s right cost them both everything?
My take on this book:
Lily Young blames herself because her younger sister Daisy ran away, you see after the orphanage they had been staying in tells them they are to old to stay Lily talked her sister Daisy into going with a family that she thought would be good to her, just until Lily could establish a place for them, but when Daisy runs away from that home Lily blames herself and is determined to find her whatever it takes. Posing as a photographers assistant she searches towns and logging camps searching for Daisy,and the only information she has is that Daisy might have been forced to work as a prostitute. Knowing this Lily is determined to rescue her, if only she can find her. While searching for her sister she tries to help any unfortunate girl who has been forced into this lifestyle. Will she ever be able to find her sister?
