Edward Marquand knew he was playing with fire, but he just didnt care. A young man in love is a headstrong force of nature, immune to common sense. The heart wants what the heart wants, and Eddie wanted Sally. Just eighteen in the summer of 1850, he was perpetually distracted. But it was not the rolling fields of his fathers southern Illinois farm that flamed his imagination. That distinction was reserved for the forbidden curves of Sally, his fathers light-skinned slave.

Edward fears that he cannot count on his brothers discretion, and he shares Sallys fear for her life. Can Edward find a way to keep them both safe, or will he have to take even more drastic steps to protect the woman he loves?
