Description
When she discovers her son has designs to sell her home out from under her, Miss Amethyst-ninety-three years old and as sharp as ever-isn't about to let her legacy go. She pins her hopes on her granddaughter, Little Am, a good-natured child who has mutated in her teenage years into something else altogether. Whatever it takes, Little Am will know that the Noble family heritage is worth fighting for.Tags

An absolutely delicious five-generation family saga. Some of those generations were worthy of the Noble family name; other were real stinkers! Penelope Stokes has crafted a wonderful story about family, faith, and fortitude that isn't sticky sweet or too good to be true.
An incredible story that spans several generations! About faith despite such adversities as slavery and the civil rights movement.
