Summary

"Aftermath" by James Lane Allen is a story that picks up where "A Kentucky Cardinal" leaves off, diving into the lives of Georgiana and Adam as they navigate their engagement and the beginning of their life together. The story explores themes of love, the beauty of nature, and the inner struggles of finding oneself through relationships. It paints a picture of Adam deeply connected to his garden while also dealing with the ups and downs of love with Georgiana, whose playful personality clashes a bit with Adam's serious love for nature and life, as they navigate their differences and try to find common ground, setting the stage for the difficulties and joys that come with building a life together.
