As the War of 1812 looms over the Great Lakes, a wilderness shipyard becomes the battleground for a young nation's freedom-and a young woman's heart.
When Joseph McCray arrives at Dobbins Landing to volunteer for the monumental task of constructing America's Great Lakes Fleet, he expects backbreaking labor and the constant threat of British invasion. He does not expect Rose Dobbins. Spirited, captivating, and fiercely devoted to her family, the niece of shipyard commander Daniel Dobbins instantly captures Joseph's heart.
But war is not the only danger lurking along the Erie shoreline.
Enter Richard Blackburn-an ambitious, cunning political climber who has set his sights on Rose as his ultimate prize. Seeing the hardworking Joseph as an immediate threat to his grand ambitions, Richard ignites a bitter rivalry that quickly turns deadly.
When a heavy timber strikes Joseph unconscious, the shipyard workers dismiss it as a tragic workplace mishap. But when a second accident nearly takes his life, Joseph's loyal friend Goose team up with Rose to investigate. What they uncover is chilling: a frayed, deliberately severed rope. Someone in the shipyard wants Joseph dead.
Despite the mounting evidence, Rose's uncle refuses to believe sabotage is at play amidst the chaos of war. Taking advantage of the suspicion and turmoil, Richard seizes his moment to make a bold move. He offers Rose his hand in marriage and promising her security in an uncertain world.
With saboteurs in the shadows, a fleet to build before the British attack, and the man trying to murder him offering a proposal to the woman he loves, Rose must uncover the truth before she's forced into a marriage she has no intention of entering.
Will Rose succumb to the pressure and say yes to Richard, or will Joseph's friend Goose expose the treacherous games afoot before the war claims them all?.
