The beguiling story of the bootmaker's daughter and the English officer who fancies her, a man and a woman on opposite sides whose destinies come together in unbounded passion . . .
Maggie Myer helps the rebel colonial cause by selling faulty footwear to the King's army. When Captain Grayson Thayer catches her stealing supplies for the rebels, she knows she's in serious trouble. That redcoat is everywhere and has eyes in the back of his head. Now how can she escape his notice?
Captain Grayson Thayer is in a bind too. He has spent seven long years rising in the ranks as a full-fledged Tory officer, all the while reporting back to the rag-tag American militia as an undercover agent. Secretly, his heart is with Maggie.
Grayson Thayer is tired of living a lie. It takes every ounce of his strength to play the role fate forced on him. Maggie hates him, he knows it. He can feel it. If only he could tell her his secret . . .
As Grayson's fate becomes entwined with Maggie's, they are in danger from treacherous enemies. As tensions rise on the eve of war, events spiral out of control and Maggie and Grayson must make a leap of faith-or risk losing their very lives.
