In 1763 Massachusetts, Susanna Smith has grown up with
everything she's ever wanted, except one thing: an
education. Because she's a female, higher learning has been
closed to her, but her quick mind and quicker tongue never
back down from a challenge. She's determined to put her
status to good use, reaching out to the poor and deprived.
And she knows when she marries well, she will be able to
continue her work with the less fortunate. Ben Ross grew up
a farmer's son and has nothing to his name but his Harvard
education. A poor country lawyer, he doesn't see how he'll
be able to fulfill his promise to make his father proud of
him. When family friends introduce him to the Smith family,
he's drawn to quick-witted Susanna but knows her family
expects her to marry well. When Susanna's decision to help
an innocent woman no matter the cost crosses with Ben's
growing disillusionment with their British rulers, the two
find themselves bound together in what quickly becomes a
very dangerous fight for justice.
