After driving through the night, Cecily
Mars is ready to get settled in her new town when she arrives,
but first she needs to crash for a few hours. When she awakens,
she decides to grab dinner at the local diner, and is met with
rude comments about an obviously pregnant server. She’s curious
as to why, and doesn’t feel it’s fair to judge, so she requests
that server. She
wasn’t expecting the remarks she heard regarding the sweet
waitress, or for the locals to treat her so badly. But even
Cecily has to admit, the story they claim the woman's telling
about the baby’s father does seem a little…out there.
When Cecily returns the next night for
dinner and learns that the pregnant waitress, Eva, has been let
go, she feels sorry for the girl and comes up with a possible
solution. She offers the woman a job at the store where she is
working. Regardless of the rumors flying, Cecily wants to give
the mother-to-be a chance.
Still, she wonders how Eva could be so
adamant and sound so truthful? No one in town believes her, but
Cecily wants to find out more. Eva’s story pulls at her
heartstrings, as well as piques her curiosity. Whether it’s true
or not, it's evident Eva will need help with the coming birth,
and she could also use a friend.
It doesn’t take Eva
long to make Cecily a believer.
Illustra is an out-of-this-world tale of
love, kindness, compassion, acceptance, and rescue from a doomed
planet.
