Women's Fiction Historical
Irish immigrant Maggie Malone wants no part of the war. She'd rather let
"the Americans" settle their differences-until her brothers join Missouri's
Union Irish Brigade, and one of their names appears on a list of injured
soldiers. Desperate for news, Maggie heads for Boonville, where the Federal
army is camped. There she captures the attention of Sergeant John Coulter.
When circumstances force Maggie to remain with the brigade, she discovers
how capable she is of helping the men she comes to think of as "her boys."
And while she doesn't see herself as someone a man would court, John
Coulter is determined to convince her otherwise. As the mistress of her brother's Missouri plantation, Elizabeth Blair has
learned to play her part as the perfect hostess-and not to question her
brother Walker's business affairs. When Walker helps organize the Wildwood
Guard for the Confederacy, and offers his plantation as the Center of
Operations, Libbie must gracefully manage a house with officers in residence
and soldiers camped on the lawn. As the war draws ever closer to her
doorstep, she must also find a way to protect the people who depend on her. Despite being neighbors, Maggie and Libbie have led such different lives that
they barely know one another-until war brings them together, and each
woman discovers that both friendship and love can come from the unlikeliest
of places.
