Resumen del Editor

When Sarah's husband, Jamie, drowns, her young life is shattered and takes a turn that she never expected. Pregnant and now widowed, she reaches out to Jamie's family for help, but they are unwilling. Instead they devise a plan to have her kidnapped. She is deceived and taken aboard a ship headed for the Chesapeake to be sold as an indentured servant, bound to unspeakable hardship and forced into the same harsh world she left.

Caught in the talons of servitude, she falls in love with a young, conscientious doctor, Alex Hutton, who has arrived in Virginia to care for his widowed sister-in-law and two young nieces. Called back to serve in Washington's army, he promises he will return for her, gain her freedom, and wed her. Other plans are made for Sarah when her owner finds himself bankrupt and sells her the first chance he gets. She's taken out into the frontier, captured by Indians, and faces unbearable hardship.

When the mistress of River Run along the Potomac encounters Sarah's plight after she has escaped, Eliza Morgan pities her, and a way is made for Sarah to remain with her and for her to care for Eliza's young daughter, Darcy. Revolution has ignited in America, and together they endure many hardships that bring them together in friendship. But when Sarah learns that Zachary Halston, a local landowner, has seduced Eliza, she is troubled about what to do. Grateful for Eliza's kindness, Sarah is forever bound to keep silent. She promises Eliza never to reveal the secret that Ilene is Eliza's child, even at the risk of living a life in shame if her master should ever discover the truth upon his return.

Trapped in Eliza and Hayward's troubled lives, Sarah flees River Run. Will she make her way back to Alex and freedom as he searches the wilderness for her? Or will her hopes be crushed at the hands of the man who deceived her long ago in Cornwall when she faced destitution?

I'm so glad to have all the loose ends tied up. Who doesn't love a happy ending?

Christian Historical Romance

Another incredible tale. This one is connected to book one, but if you're not good at remembering names, like me, you might nor figure it out till the Native American scenes. At least that's when I finally made sense of it. It actually goes back in time to the Revolutionary War.
Again, some harrowing and difficult to read situations but God is bigger and His purposes are beyond us!
Same awesome narrator, and from being an avid audiobook listener, that's huge to me! So many times, the narrator changes.

Great job to both the author and the narrator! This is an excellent Christian series!

Just Great

I leas so excited over the first book in the series could not wait to hear the next book. With each one it was so good. I thank you so much . Ann from Virgina
