The words are like magic.” – Julia Miller Another timeless Civil War novel about commitment, honor and faith from historical romance author Jessica James, the first two-time winner of the coveted John Esten Cooke Award for Southern Fiction. Confederate Civil War spy Sarah Irene Duvall lives alone and friendless in her homeland as she pretends to support the Union cause while secretly providing information to a rebel officer. Cavalry commander Douglas Benton would much rather flirt with a woman than work with one. When he finds out that the virtuous and devout Sarah Duvall is the spy who has been providing him with valuable information, he fervently resists the arrangement. But Benton soon discovers there is more to being a good soldier than leading a cavalry charge. When Sarah makes a selfless sacrifice, he learns the most important lessons of all: That faith is more important than glory—and love more important than life.
