BOOK BLURB
“I knew the moment I came up out of that water yesterday, that it was a sin for me to own you, Isaiah.” Samuel’s breath caught, and he briefly looked away while wiping tears from his face. “You’re my brother…my equal.”
It’s 1855 and the prosperous Hawkins plantation of Kentucky is not only home to Samuel, his wife, Elizabeth, and their four children, but to over two hundred enslaved souls. Born into slavery on the Hawkins plantation, Naomi makes quite an impression as Elizabeth’s talented seamstress. Her beauty is unrivaled. Wherever she goes, everyone’s eyes can’t help but follow her. But Naomi is torn between a life of secrets and an extraordinary purpose far greater than herself.
Through unimaginable tragedy, one woman becomes the means of a monumental shift to the Hawkins’ way of life by which all souls on the plantation will forever be changed. And the faith that burns within her heart will become the very fabric that unites them all through the ensuing storm.
This long-awaited prequel to Blinders does not disappoint!
