When Laura Marquardt first meets Brandon Reid, their encounter is anything but pleasant. But when the two are seated together at a dinner party, they soon find that they share similar interests--Laura desires to educate blacks, and Brandon, as a white officer over colored troops, eagerly supports her cause. When Laura's sister, Carissa, marries her Confederate beau, Laura finds herself in a difficult situation when she overhears plots to kill Union soldiers. Though in her heart she feels she should share this information with Brandon, Laura fears she will betray her sister's trust and possibly endanger her sister's life. And when Brandon's motives for pursuing her come into question, her heart is even more conflicted. Where is God leading her?

"A su regreso de la Santa Cruzada, Raymond, conde de Avraché, confidente del rey y primo de la reina de Inglaterra, debe contraer matrimonio por orden del monarca con Juliana de Lofts, una rica heredera y señora de dos importantes castillos. Sin embargo, los hechos no siguen el curso esperado: en varias ocasiones, y sin posteriores disculpas, la dama lo ha dejado plantado frente al altar, convirtiéndolo en el hazmerreír de la corte. ¿Qué razones se ocultan tras el comportamiento de lady Juliana? Raymond decide averiguarlas y, para ello, oculta su identidad y se presenta ante tan difícil señora como maese constructor. Aunque existe un pequeño problema: ¡desconoce el arte de edificar fortalezas o barreras de defensa! Bajo este disfraz, el caballero penetrará en el interior del castillo y descubrirá a una delicada dama de valor y astucia incomparables, una madre entregada y mujer indomable que guarda un secreto insospechado."--Page 4 of cover. Ordered by the king himself to marry a man she does not know, Lady Juliana refuses and barricades herself behind castle walls, but her resolve begins to melt with the arrival of her intended, Raymond, the handsome Count of Avrache.
