A tale of love won and love lost and the faith to find it again. From the banks of the Potomac to the misty moors of England, Darcy follows a path where the secrets of the past slowly rise to the surface in this dramatic saga that began in Before the Scarlet Dawn. She meets Ethan Brennan, an aspiring English horse breeder who embraces her independent spirit and marvels at the simplicity of her faith. Ethan and Darcy fall in love but are kept apart by a promise to another and a sworn oath to a dying woman whose long-hidden secret threatens Darcy's and Ethan's lives.

- Book 2 of 3: Daughters of the Potomac
Years have passed since that desperate night when Darcy last saw her mother pale and sick, shocked into silence. Hayward sent her to live with her kind uncle William Breeze, a horticulturalist, his excitable wife Mari, and their five daughters. Dark memories have faded, and she loves her life along the river--attached to nature and in love with its Creator.
Her family is sent an invitation, to attend a gathering at Twin Oaks, a plantation across the river on the Virginia side. Its young heir has returned from a lengthy trip to England, accompanied by two ladies and a gentleman, Ethan Brennan. While out walking the grounds, Ethan nearly runs Darcy over while testing out one of Twin Oaks stallions. Darcy is drawn to him, but puts off any idea of an attachment. It is assumed Ethan is engaged to one of the ladies.
When he saves Darcy from a near drowning, she cannot deny Ethan is in love with her, and she with him. Yet their time together is short lived after her rival gives Darcy a letter from Ethan saying he must return to England and keep his word to Miss Roth that he would marry her.
Brokenhearted, Darcy tries to accept his rejection, and then she is suddenly summoned to England to at last meet the grandmother she never knew. Will the truth concerning her parents unravel? When Darcy meets with an accident that leaves her paralyzed, will she discover Ethan's deeper, heroic side? Will her faith help her survive the ordeals she will face, the losses she will experience, and the final reunion with those she thought forever parted?
Secrets are slowly revealed, which leads to her life hanging from a dangerous thread. Ethan is her only hope.
