"There can be help. There's always God," said Amy. "I'm ashamed. I'd forgotten about Him." She was quiet for a time. When she lifted her head she looked older and resolute. "Don't blame yourself too much, Cousin Caroline," she said. "That's as bad as taking no blame at all. I'm not going to blame everything on Ames; I was a little fool myself. I was old enough to know that things aren't simple." - A Prologue to Love Taylor Caldwell was born in Manchester, England, into a family of Scottish background.
