Lincoln’s Paramour

Lincoln’s Paramour reimagines one of America’s most iconic figures through the dangerous lens of forbidden love, betrayal, and the shadows of history.

From the sunlit fields of a Kentucky plantation to the blood-soaked steps of Ford’s Theatre, this sweeping novel unveils the untold bond between Abraham Lincoln and Maisie Ford—a fearless, captivating girl born into slavery who claimed his heart in childhood and remained his secret passion until his final breath.

Their hidden romance burns against the backdrop of a nation tearing itself apart, entwined with Lincoln’s turbulent rise from prairie lawyer to president. But as love defies the chains of society, darker forces close in. At the center lurks Aron, Lincoln’s tormented half-brother, whose envy festers into vengeance—and whose fateful alliance with John Wilkes Booth seals more than one destiny.

Blending fact and imagination, Lincoln’s Paramour is a tale of passion and peril, of power and sacrifice, of the man behind the myth and the woman history tried to erase. More than a love story, it’s a bold reimagining of America’s past—and the price of keeping dangerous secrets.
