Description

From the pages of American history comes The Roswell Women As they watched a nation being torn asunder, the women of Roswell, Georgia could hardly stand idle. Left without their men, they ran the Roswell mill to provide a flagging Confederate Army with proud gray uniforms. But their defiance branded them as traitors to the North and they were mercilessly shipped northward in an act decried as brutal by both North and South alike. Allison Forsyth-beautiful young widow of Captain Coin Forsyth, the regal plantation mistress would survive the ravages of imprisonment to find a new love-until a ghost from the past threatened her hard-won freedom. Madrigal O'Laney-the fiery redhead lured men from both sides of the war with a promise of love. But the promise had a price and one man thought it was too steep to pay. Rebecca Smiley-Both friend and servant, she had groomed her mistress, Allison, for the life of an aristocrat. Despite the war, she would see to it that she regained her rightful place. Flood Tompkins-Disguised as a man, she would survive the war to stake her claim to a fortune, and make a choice that could change Allison's life forever.
