The Belle of Chatham
In the midst of the American revolution, sisters Maebel and Coralie Bohannon find their loyalties divided as war reaches their home. Mae falls for an American general while suspecting Coralie--still tied to a British officer--of espionage. When betrayal strikes, Mae must risk everything on a dangerous journey for those she loves, all in the name of liberty.
The call for liberty creates a divide between family and country, desire and duty, love and loyalty.
In 1777, caught in the crossroads of the American Revolution, sisters Maebel and Coralie Bohannon's quaint New Jersey village becomes a battleground as they house American officers. Rebellion ripples through their family as members take opposing sidesβPatriots and Loyalistsβcausing a deep chasm that fractures their once-unbreakable bond.
As Mae's friendship grows with the American general Rhys Harlow, Coralie continues her liaison with her childhood sweetheart, a British officer stationed in New York. Mae, torn between her deepening love for the general and suspicion that her sister is a British spy, leaves the only home she's ever known for the New York frontier. When betrayal strikes in the heart of the wilderness, she's forced to take a perilous journey that tests her very survival and those she loves, all in the name of liberty.
On the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Laura Frantz offers a stirring friends-to-lovers historical romance of divided loyalties, patriotism, sacrifice, sisterhood, and love set during the American Revolution.
