Ellie Ballantyne, youngest child of Silas and Eden, has left
finishing school. But back at her family home in Pittsburgh, Ellie
finds that her parents are away on a long trip and her siblings
don't seem to want her to stay. When she opens a day school for
young ladies, she begins tutoring the incorrigible daughter of the
enemy Turlock clan. The Turlocks are slaveholders and whiskey
magnates, envious of the powerful Ballantynes and suspicious of
their abolitionist leanings. As Ellie becomes increasingly tangled
with the Turlocks, she finds herself falling in love with an
impossible future--and Jack Turlock, a young man striving to free
himself from his family's violent legacy. How can she betray her
family and side with the enemy? And will Jack ever allow her into
his world?
Masterful storyteller Laura Frantz continues to unfold the stirring
saga of the Ballantyne family in this majestic tale of love,
loyalty, and the makings of a legacy. With rich descriptions of the
people who settled and civilized a wild landscape, Frantz weaves a
tapestry of characters and places that stick with the reader long
after they turn the last page.
