Women's Fiction Historical
In this spellbinding debut, Velva Jean Hart finds true love-
and then risks everything to follow her dreams Set in Appalachia in the years before World War II, Velva
Jean Learns to Drive is a poignant story of a spirited
young girl growing up in the gold-mining and moonshining
South. Before she dies, Velva Jean's mother urges her to "live out
there in the great wide world". Velva Jean dreams of
becoming a big-time singer in Nashville until she falls in
love with Harley Bright, a handsome juvenile delinquent
turned revival preacher. As their tumultuous love story
unfolds, Velva Jean must choose between keeping her hard-
won home and pursuing her dream of singing in the Grand Ole
Opry.
