About this listen

Belle Palmer is finally free! Separated from her father on the harrowing escape, Belle is lost and alone until she finds shelter with the Bests, the first free family she's ever known. For the first time in her 16 years, Belle can speak her mind - except for her feelings for a certain dark-eyed young man - The Beau.

Educated and handsome, at 18, Daniel Best is engaged to the prettiest (if a little spoiled) girl around. So when the bedraggled girl his parents take under their wing suddenly turns into a vibrant, lovely young woman, his attraction to her is a complete - and complicated - surprise.

That the two belong together is undeniable, but caught between conscience and attraction, could it possibly happen?

The storyline was gripping and encouraging. I felt like I was there. The characters were well written and I loved the way I didn’t hear the narrator talking. I felt like I was listening in on a real life experience.

The most memorable moment was the support given Belle by Daniel's mother. She.became a "surrogate" for Belle, something that used to be very common in southern black families.
