Description
The turbulent shores of the Great Lakes...and five courageous, beautiful women. They are young enough to love, strong enough to survive, and brave enough to dream!
OCTAVIA -- Stranded in the wilds of Canada, far from the glittering drawing rooms of her native London, the fiery-haired beauty loses her heart to the Seneca warrior who saves her life...
SILVER GRASS -- Octavia's lovely daughter traces and finds her Chippewa roots and follows her destiny... until a most unlikely lover sweeps her into his arms...
ELMA -- The orphaned daughter of Silver Grass, she is a loyal Unionist during the Civil War, but dares to love a man who wears Confederate gray...
MARTA -- Dismayed by her staid life, Elma's younger sister strikes out on her own as cook in a mining camp... only to meet a sophisticated Easterner and enter a world she had never dared to dream of. . .
HENRIETTA -- Wearing the jeweled gold locket handed dozen from her great-great-grandmother Octavia, she finds the courage to follow her dream and defy the man who was once her childhood sweetheart and is now her bitter enemy.
