We may be free from slavery, but we still fight the slavery within our own hearts and minds.
On the brink of the Revolutionary War, a plantation known as Washington's Woods which borders the Ohio River, becomes a center of controversy. Forbidden romance crosses racial lines and a family secret is left hidden in the symbols of a star sampler. Generations later, the truth emerges as best friends, Nicole and Kate realize they are actually related through a newly discovered biracial bloodline. This painful revelation tears at the heart of their friendship, but in the end a renewed understanding of family comes to light. Thus begins the journey to find true freedom and hope for a promising tomorrow at the place where two rivers meet.
Londa Hayden takes us from 1767 to present day with seamless skill and delight. There are times when a writer discovers personal genealogy which touches the grander scale of history. Londa took such a risk to weave this family tale during uncertain times. A must read for those who love historical and contemporary romances. This book has it all. -Dr. Trisha Petty, ThD
