Historical | Fiction Family Life
When Martha Dandridge Custis marries her second husband,
George, she never suspects that the soft-spoken Virginia
planter is destined to command the founding of a nation—or
that she is to be “Lady Washington,” the woman at the first
President’s side. Only a select inner circle of women will
know the cost of sharing a beloved man with history . . .
and each will draw strength from the unique treasure given
to them by a doomed queen.
Seeing farm and family
through each harsh New England season, Abigail Adams is
sustained only by the fervent reunions stolen between John’s
journeys abroad. She will face the terror of an ocean
crossing to join her husband in France—and write her own
page in history. And there she will cross paths with kings,
commoners—and young Sally Hemings.
Just as Sally had
grown from a clever child to a beautiful woman, so had her
relationship with Thomas Jefferson grown from a friendship
between slave and master to one entangled in the
complexities of black and white, decorum and desire. It is a
relationship that will leave Sally to face an agonizingly
wrenching choice.
Dolley Madison, too, must live
with the repercussions of a forbidden love affair—although
she will confront even greater trials as a President’s wife.
But Dolley will become one of the best-loved ladies of the
White House—and leave an extraordinary legacy of her
own.
A lushly written novel that traces the marriages
tested by the demands of
love and loyalty, Patriot
Hearts offers readers a dazzling glimpse behind the
scenes of a revolution, from adversity and treachery to
teatime strategies, as four magnificent women shape a
nation’s future.
