Hearts of fire

by Kerry Newcomb

She was a Tryon and a lady, a proud, raven-tressed beauty from a great Philadelphia family divided by war -- a family now driven to open conflict by notorious rebel Lucas Jericho, who challenged Cassie Tryon to love as never before. Dynamic, passionate opponents, soon they were swept away on a feverish tide ... until family tragedy trapped Cassie between her Rebel lover and her loyalty to her Tory brother. As a patriot heiress in a Tory-occupied city, Cassie achingly surrendered her dreams of Lucas and his maddening touch. She would live dangerously, love recklessly, and command her father's mighty empire until she could reclaim the pirate prince torn from her arms by a brother's betrayal and the cruelties of war. FROM THE EXPLOSIVE FURY OF JULY 4, 1776, TO THE BITTER WINTER AT VALLEY FORGE, A BLAZING SAGA OF STEADFAST COURAGE AND ENDURING LOVE.
