This is a vintage hardcover book, Jassy by Norah Lofts.  It is a 1945 Book Club Edition from Alfred A. Knopf.  It is a 19th Century period romance; here's a synopsis:

"She was the daughter of a preacher and a gypsy. A strange and elusive child with powers of prophecy, she grew into an even stranger woman. From those around her she inspired love and admiration or furious hatred. Nothing in between. And somehow Jassy could transform even those who loved her into her enemies. Barney Hatton, the disposessed heir of Mortiboys, loved her but not enough. Lindy, a servant girl who worked there, loved her too much. Elizabeth Twysdale, who taught Jassy her lessons, hated her more with every passing day. And because of the people around her, the people who loved or loathed her, Jassy's life was destined to be one of passion and anguish."

The dust jacket is in really rough shape, as you can see in the photos, but the book itself is in excellent condition with no issues.  All of the pages are intact and very clean, and there's no writing in it.  Asking $3.00 obo.  Everything I have listed for sale is "or best offer", so feel free to make an offer.
