The Sharecropper's Sister by Martha Hutchens

 


Missouri 1942. Dot is doing her best to try to run her brother's farm while he's away serving in the war. But she needs help. She's never run the tractor before. Nate came and offered to teach her, but she couldn't imagine why, since Landowners didn't mix with Sharecroppers. She and her brother grew up as sharecroppers, but her brother purchased this farm with a loan at the bank. A bank with a filthy rotten dirty no good superior acting nephew making calls.  And so the story starts. Sweet romance with loveable characters. I felt right at home. Excellent read - I didn't want to see it end.
