It is the eve of a new age of freedom in the colonies.
But can a proper English lady dare hope for her own
independence?
Lady Elisabeth "Liberty" Lawson has nearly everything a lady of her
position could want. Daughter of the British lieutenant governor of
the Virginia Colony and a darling of fine society in a rugged land,
she is anticipating an advantageous marriage. That her betrothed is
a rake and love is lacking is of little consequence--or so she
tells herself.
Though her own life seems in order, colonial Williamsburg is a
powder keg on the verge of exploding, and her fiancé's cousin Noble
Rynallt carries the flame of revolution in his heart. Those with
connections to the British nobility are suspected as spies, and
Liberty soon finds herself left with a terrible choice. Will she
stay true to her English roots? Or side with Noble and the radical
revolutionaries?
