An impetuous love swept Blessing Brightman away from the Quaker community, into the highest ranks of Cincinnati society.

His plan is soon complicated, however, by the enchanting widow. Never before has a woman spoken as if she's his equal--or challenged him to consider the lives of others.In a city nearly ablaze with racial tensions quickly dividing the country, can two people worlds apart possibly find common ground?
Why I'm Waiting:
 I was blown away by the first book in the series, Honor, last year. It was one of those stories that you couldn't put down and was just so different and unique, you savored it all at the same time. I can't wait to see how this series continues. 


What are you waiting on this week?
