About this listen
Catherine Monroe has lost her husband and is now threatened with the loss of her ancestral home. When a severely injured man shows up on her doorstep, she finds herself instantly attracted to him, only to discover he holds the deed to her family estate.
Newly arrived in town, Nate Everett is waylaid and left for dead on the side of the road. He awakens in the home of a woman whom he must persuade to trust him with her home and her life. Their attraction for each other grows, but when a tavern maid is found dead, the evidence points to Nate as the murderer.
While Nate fights for his freedom, he hopes Catherine will believe in him and his love for her. Catherine never thought she would love again, but can she trust the love she has for Nate when a mysterious woman arrives in town claiming to be his wife?

Born on a plantation in Charles City, Virginia, Pheby Delores Brown has lived a relatively sheltered life. Shielded by her mother’s position as the estate’s medicine woman and cherished by the Master’s sister, she is set apart from the others on the plantation, belonging to neither world. She’d been promised freedom on her eighteenth birthday, but instead of the idyllic life she imagined with her true love, Essex Henry, Pheby is forced to leave the only home she has ever known. She unexpectedly finds herself thrust into the bowels of slavery at the infamous Devil’s Half Acre.
