Sarah's Ground

Sarah Tracy is a young girl trying to find her place in life. She is 18, and ends up going to work at Mt. Vernon, the one-time home of George Washington. The place is in a sad state of disrepair, and she, along with others, is working to restore the home and the grounds.

That would be a difficult enough job, but the Civil War is also going on. She makes Mt. Vernon a neutral territory; soldiers from either side can visit, but only under certain conditions. She has to manage that, a bunch of political matters that come up, manage to find the money to make the repairs, and manage all of this while, at the same time, coming to terms with her growing feelings for a man who is also helping to restore the home.

It's an nice historical book and also a romance at the same time.
