Determined not to end up like them, Margy takes refuge in her dreams of a better life. Her goals are simple: to find a husband she loves, have children, and live in a nice home. When she meets Frankie Malone, she thinks at last her dreams might be fulfilled. But a devastating tragedy rattles her hopefulness and forces Margy to finally stand up for what she deserves. Filled with the joys and heartbreaks of family life, Tomorrow will be better is told with a simplicity and tenderness that only Betty Smith could write."--Back cover.
