In the spring of 1865, Coralie Sandison watches the peace parade in Ashton, South Carolina, her heart torn between hope and dread as she waits for her brother Tommy and her fiancé, Major Earl Danton. But the war’s end hasn’t freed Earl from his rage—his hatred for Yankees burns hotter than ever, and his return brings a darkness that threatens to shatter the fragile peace.

Jenny Ackroyd is caught between her heart and her father’s disapproval when she starts seeing Dave Bradley, the son of the local plant owner. Though she assumes Tom Ackroyd’s opposition stems from his union loyalty, there’s a deeper, more personal history between the families that could change everything.
