This is your atypical Colonial Love Story, centered around two characters, Annabelle Matthews and Nathaniel Grey-Clarke. It follows the cliche of forbidden love with a hint of war, but everything else is anything but. Follow the many characters through plot twists and turns, emotional train wrecks, and of course, their own personal civil wars.
*Note: This is only the first draft. Many of the information or plot may have some historical inconsistencies, but the story was inspired by actual historical events in American history. And then there's my own Samantha fantasy twist tied into it. So if you're looking for ACTUAL completely correct historical fiction...you may want to look some place else. Just a note.
