JOSEPHINE DEFALCO
Author, Nurse, Nutritionist, Farmer
A registered dietitian, nurse, and certified EMT, Josephine DeFalco divides her time on a small, organic, urban farm in Scotsdale, Arizona and a newly acquired working farm in Wisconsin. At both locations, she and her husband have many vegetable gardens, dogs, and a collection of spoiled laying hens. Her Facebook page, Best Little Organic Farm, encourages everyone to relish the wonders of growing and preserving their own nutritious foods, taking responsibility for their health and well-being, and honoring our beautiful planet.
After the sudden death of her husband, Brenna McEvoy finds herself a widowed mother of three young children, and despite her privileged upbringing, must somehow find a way to survive and make a living for her family. Brenna's only asset is her charming Victorian home which she transforms into a boarding house for local miners. Although Brenna is unskilled at managing a house full of men, she quickly rolls up her sleeves to embrace the challenge. But the struggle of day-to-day living forces her to open her eyes to the suffering and bigotry surrounding the working class. When she falls in love with a working man and finds herself shunned by her family and friends, she must decide whether to follow the rules of society or her heart.
