Laws didn’t support her. Society shunned her. She was often banished from home. That’s what happens to Penelope Gold, the heroine of Growing A Family in Persimmon Hollow. She is exiled to the Florida frontier town of Persimmon Hollow. She’s expected to hide for the duration of her pregnancy, leave her newborn for adoption and scurry home. But something remarkable happens after she arrives. She finds love, acceptance, faith and a newfound determination to pursue the future she wants.
