Adele

A Needful Bride

By: Danni Roan

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Adele Fortuna is not happy with her father’s plans to foist her and her sisters off on Needful husbands, but what choice does she have. Since her mother's death, she has managed to keep the household together, but with steadily decreasing funds, something has to be done. If Adele can find a well to do husband in the dusty town of Needful, Texas, perhaps her sisters will not have to suffer the indignities of being sold to the highest bidder. Despite her father’s desperate play, Adele knows that he only wants his children to have a safe home where they will be provided for once he is gone. Can a young woman’s determination to marry well bring more hope and happiness to Needful, or will all dreams be dashed in the harsh light of the real world?
