Beloved Legacy and
Forbidden Legacy, the Revolutionary War sagas
by New York Times bestselling author Phoebe Conn, have captured the spirit of
rebellion and love's sweet surrender. Now, as the war draws to a close, a
restless nation inspires reckless passion in a woman caught in the heat of
battle--for a soldier's heart...
For Belle Barclay, a dream comes true when Falcon, her beloved distant
cousin, returns home from the Virginia Militia. His passionate welcome
leads her to the brink of surrender--until she realizes he's had too much drink
for his declarations of love to be sincere. Restored to her senses, she
flees from Falcon's strong, seductive arms.
Urged by both their families, Falcon proposes to Belle--an offer her pride
won't let her accept. Deeply wounded by the rejection, Falcon returns to
the militia, leaving Belle plagued with second thoughts that send her searching
the battlefields for him. Now, reunited behind British lines, Belle and
Falcon are caught where life and death are separated by a thread, and where the
ravages of war could bring them closer together--or tear them apart forever...
Reviews
"Phoebe Conn weaves family life, the hardship of travel in Colonial times
and high passion through her history of one of Americas only wars on home ground."
