Great Maria by Cecelia Holland

Back of the Book:

Her father is a robber baron... Her husband has grand ambitions and a quick temper... She will become...the Great Maria.

A mere fourteen years old, strong-willed Maria is betrothed to Richard. Theirs is a marriage of conflict, yet one that grows over the years into respect and partnership. As they struggle-at times against each other, at times side-by-side-Maria and Richard emerge as full-blooded characters you'll never forget.
