Katherine Heaton, a young patriot woman, stares into the eyes of
the Redcoat officer standing over her father's lifeless body.
Stunned at what she has just witnessed, there is nothing she can do
when the soldiers haul her brother away for hanging a British Stamp
Agent. Devoted to her brother, and the cause, she will help him
fight for independence. Captain Jeremy Burke, officer in the
King's army, arrives in the New World and discovers the
colonies have an elegant simplicity that surprises him, especially
the beautiful Heaton woman. He has never had a problem with
self-discipline, until now. The painful road of time, separate
lives, and war require determination and courage for two enemies to
embrace a love so powerful and forbidden.
