A Chance for Kallie Mae, set in the Kentucky Appalachian Mountains in 1911, is the story of a young woman who has dreamed of learning to read since she was a child but with no school close enough to attend. Later a school finally opens nearby, but when her little sister dies of a fever and her mother passes in childbirth, Kallie must put aside her own desires to care for the new baby and her younger brother. Years later, the Moonlight Schools to teach adults open and Kallie has the chance to learn to read and to see Quinn Spencer after years apart. The love they shared as children burns stronger than ever, but with their families locked in a bitter feud, following her heart could cost Kallie everything she’s worked to protect.
