The Fires of Freedom — Sally Laity; Dianna Crawford

Ben Haynes, postrider for the Patriots, is in love with Abigail Preston, a young widow under the control of her domineering mother-in-law. Ma Preston, however, is not about to allow the two to marry. The last thing the old woman wants is for Abigail to take her little son away from the farm. Still, Ben believes there has to be a way for him and Abigail to be together -- and he'll pay whatever price is required.

Morgan Thomas, a dashing spy for the Patriots in the British-occupied Boston of 1775, is a clever deceiver for what he considers a righteous cause -- even when it involves duping his Loyalist merchant father out of a large sum of money to further his ingenious schemes. But when he comes face to face with beautiful Prudence Endicott, a stiffly practical Puritan also determined to fight for freedom from British tyranny, he is forced to see himself through her staunchly religious eyes. Can this charmer win the love of such an ardently righteous woman when she learns that he is floating on a sea of lies?

Love and honor are at stake as faith is tested in freedom's fires.
