Hurricane Sweep — Samantha Harte

Three generations of women pursue life and love through the turbulence of 19th century America in this sweeping historical romance.

Florie is a delicate Southern belle who must flee north to escape her family's cruelty, only to endure the torment of both harsh winters and a sadistic husband. Loraine, Florie's beautiful and impulsive daughter, bares her body to the wrong man, yet hides her heart from the right one. And Jolie, Florie's pampered granddaughter, finds herself in the center of the whirlwind of her family's secrets as she faces a fateful choice.

From plantation life in the early 1800s to Boston at the outbreak of the Civil War, each woman is caught in a bitter struggle between power and pride. And each must search for a love strong enough to overcome generations of broken hearts.
