Allie Maples has a sparkle in her emerald eyes that draws men the way buttermilk draws flies on a hot summer day. She is bright, self-assured, and beautiful. Even though she just turned sixteen, she knows exactly what she wants out of life. Her ideal life is not confined to a plantation as its mistress. Allie is adventurous- she wants excitement- she wants the exotic and the mystery that comes with travel. However, when she travels to Charleston, South Carolina with her mother to visit relatives at Christmas, in the year 1860, the last thing she expects is to meet someone and fall in love.Thomas Jackson is dashing and debonair- a handsome, independent, young entrepreneur who currently makes his home in Charleston. So far, he has avoided being caught up in any young woman's web that was looking to wrangle a marriage proposal out of him; however, the first time he lays eyes on Allie Maples of Savannah, Georgia, he determines to make her his. Allie is excitingly different from the other young women he has known. Her dark, copper-colored hair, olive complexion, and emerald green eyes spark a fire in him that even a looming War Between the States is unable to extinguish... However, the war threatens to keep them apart when Thomas begins running blockades to supply the South with weapons and ammunition and the invading Northern forces begin blockading Southern ports...
