The following is from my third book
in my Eastern Sierra Brides 1884 series, Her Independent Spirit.
“Yes. Yes I do. Although…” Lulu’s
voice faded as she searched in her mind for the best way to bring up the
subject she really wanted to discuss with this woman. She blurted out, “Mrs.
Dodd, did you mean what you told me the day Sophie Ann was born? If I keep my
baby and leave the Blue Feather, will you help me?”
“You plannin’ on keepin’ her?”
“I want to,” Lulu forced the words out
with a hoarse whisper as she fought back tears. It annoyed her that she still
easily erupted into crying jags like she had while she was pregnant. “I can’t
bear to give her up. But, I have to have someplace to go and a way to take care
of her. Not-not everyone in this town is willing to give me a chance, and Miss
Flora is serious about me not being able to keep her here.”
