Liberty and Destiny — Jessica James

LIBERTY & DESTINY is a second place winner in the prestigious Sheila Award contest.

The spark from a single candle can light a sacred flame...
From award-winning and bestselling historical fiction author Jessica James comes another tale of romance, espionage and intrigue.
Two patriots show their devotion to freedom as they struggle to survive in a war-torn country full of deceivers and spies during the American Revolution.
Although she resides with Loyalists supportive of the Crown, Sophia Adair is devoted to the cause of Liberty. When she learns that someone within the militia ranks of Patriot Grant Morgan is informing the British of his plans, she must get word to him without triggering suspicious about her own loyalties.
Her scheme is both arduous and dangerous, but ultimately successful, despite its peril and risk. After sending a communication to Colonel Morgan implicating herself as a spy, she is picked up by his soldiers and questioned. That is when she informs him of the danger he faces with an informant apparently close to him.
This poignant novel follows the two Patriots to a gripping climax when Sophia is discovered as a spy and Colonel Morgan and his men are lured into a British trap. There would be no quarter for either of them -- or any of them. They wouldn't be fighting to hold ground, but to survive. Safety lay in victory alone.
