A Hero Such as Heaven Intended

By Amanda Lauer

As the Civil War grinds on, Theresa Lundgren's world unravels in besieged Atlanta. Trapped by encroaching Union forces, a desperate act costs her step-brother his life, and forever alters her own, and that of Corporal Joseph Laurent, a Cherokee soldier, questioning his loyalty to the Union cause. Their meeting at the scene of a crime is far from ideal. Theresa, an ambitious Southern spitfire, and Joseph, a man torn between conscription's demands and his pacifist roots, couldn't be more different. Yet, as Atlanta braces for General Sherman's devastating March to the Sea, an unexpected bond forms between them, fueled by a shared faith, perilous circumstances, and perhaps something deeper. With the city under siege and their lives in jeopardy, can Theresa and Joseph bridge their divide to survive the war's final assault? Or will the flames of conflict consume their chance at love?
