...is unable to shield Brigid from a ravaging stranger, a man nearly twice her age, who uses the young girl's desperate desire for love to seduce her.
Once she learns her daughter is pregnant, as if tempting fate, Rosemary suffers a final altercation. She sends Brigid away while secretly condemning her husband to prison.
Rosemary's scheme was to save Brigid from a pitiless society that oppressed unwed mothers during the early days of the 1900s. But she frightens her in the process. As a result, vestiges of her fear and caution keeps her desire for a husband perpetually fettered—- and then each time she is ready to fall in love, fate intervenes.
