The Legacy of Alicia Allen — Jean Woodward

After the deaths of her parents, Alicia Allen had settled down in St. Louis and had made a home for herself there--the first real, permanent home she had ever known. Her parents, as loving as they had been, had always lived in a trailer in order to follow the construction jobs her father had taken, and Alicia had never had the toys or the pets most children grew up with.

Alicia was alone in the world, but she had survived. In fact, she had finally fulfilled a lifelong dream by attending art school and by nurturing her talent as a very creative artist. She was teaching art to children when she met Kent Gregory, the father of one of her students. Almost against her wished, she had fallen in love with the important attorney, and he with her. The fact that he was separated from his wife and children did not deter them from dreaming and planning for a future together.

And the Bo Leonard, walking into her life--Bo, with his laughing, sarcastic ways and his devastating news.

Suddenly, Alicia's life was not so simple as she had thought. She was on the threshold of an important discovery--a discovery that could alter her life forever.
