Carly (31 page)

Meet the women of Ivy Manor—four strong and independent ladies who live and love throughout the decades of the twentieth century.
Each has experiences unique to herself; each must learn to grow and succeed on her own terms.

Chloe

Born in the early days of the new century, she gives up her old life for a new one—before realizing that perhaps what she’s
always wanted was right in front of her.

Bette

Coming into her own during World War II, Bette learns that dreams and expectations often change, hopefully for the better.
Can she give up her childish hopes and embrace real life?

Leigh

A child of the civil rights movement, Leigh lives and breathes the exploration of new ideas and thoughts. But independence
isn’t always easy, and mistakes are made. Can she learn to accept who she is before it’s too late?

Carly

Carly longs for independence, and finds it in the military. But when all that is stripped away, will she realize that her
sense of identity comes from within, not from anything or anyone else?
