Kate is initially excited about the prospect of living with Maude, but soon discovers that her cousin is not as kind as she seems. Maude is controlling and manipulative, and she quickly takes over Kate's life. Kate becomes increasingly unhappy and isolated, but she is unable to leave because she is financially dependent on Maude. As the story unfolds, Kate must navigate the complex dynamics of her relationship with Maude, and ultimately find a way to break free from her cousin's grasp. The novel is a gripping tale of family, power, and the struggle for independence.She was an enthusiastic admirer of beauty, and Nellie had made an impression upon her at once; so, when the latter said, ""What makes you look at me so funny?"" she answered, ""Because you are so pretty."" This made a place for her at once in the heart of the vain little Nellie, who asked her to go upstairs and see the pink silk dress which ""Aunt Kelsey had given her.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
