The Mother's Recompense by Edith Wharton

4.0

Kate gets a chance to redeem herself with the adult daughter she left behind as a child until a former lover appears on the scene and is found to be romancing that same daughter. Will Kate be able to stand by and watch her daughter marry her one great love? Or will she tell all? It feels soapy, but there is an ethical conundrum that does not have an easy answer.
