Now he was saddled with his own prisoner, the sad, stubborn Amanda Douglas, on a journey that would change their lives forever...Even her previous spartan existence had not prepared Amanda for the dangerous trek she was now making--entirely against her will. But when John gazed at her through his beautiful, haunted eyes, bright with fever, she was lost. Could a privileged Yankee son and a poor, proud Rebel girl keep their love safe from the rest of the world?
