I just finished reading Forevermore: A Novel by Cathy Marie Hake

In 1891 Texas, farmer Jakob Stauffer misses his late wife Naomi not only as a companion he cherished but because she brought order and organization to his household of his pregnant sister Annie Erickson and his young daughter Emmy-Lou. Miss Hope Ladley arrives looking for work as a temporary housekeeper. The widower Jakob finds her upbeat and very kind towards his beloved daughter and her mule Hattie with the hat.

Hope is a unique character as she humorously “mangles” idioms and colloquialism like “you don’t know me from Eve” and “you know me from Adam” as he is male. You are always amused by her commentary.

Very funny story and Hope helps the family get over a lot of hurt.
