How Far the World Will Bend

Meg Armstrong is intrigued by a story that her grandmother tells of a tragic death years ago during a cotton mill riot. All too soon, she is hurtled from her life in the 1920's into the past where mysterious circumstances prompt her to assume the identity of Margaret Hale. Meg determines to stay long enough to save the handsome, enigmatic mill owner, John Thornton, from his fate. But complications arise as Meg finds herself falling in love with the man she is meant to save. Based on Elizabeth Gaskell’s North and South, this novel tells the story of a love that crosses social classes—and time.
