The Diary Of Lillian March Fen, 1863 - 1865

Fifteen-year-old Lillian March Fen has grown up in the luxury of a Virginia plantation estate, her only worries being which dress to buy and what party to attend. The idea of Civil War is just an annoying whisper that makes gentlemen and ladies too dreary to dance at parties. Everything, however, changes upon her father's unexpected death. Suddenly her perfect world begins to fall apart and when her carriage is attacked while accompanying her father's dead body back home, she meets someone who changes her life. When tragedies leave her alone and responsible for running an entire plantation in the midst of war raids and bloodshed, she must quickly grow up and decide what she really believes in and along the way she meets a man who she believes at first is everything she hates.
A great coming into one's own story about a girl caught between the opposing sides of the Civil War filled with friendship, romance, and the art of growing up when life seems to be falling apart.
