Jonah's plans to desert are ruined when he crosses paths with a patriotic and headstrong beauty in the Georgia backcountry. Ruth Ann Talley works at the Sweetwater mill that's now a factory. Her pa and brother are dead, food is scarce, and the enemy is closing in on Atlanta. She'll probably never live to have a family of her own, but she won't give up on the Cause. Lieutenant Jonah Baker is tempted to abscond from his new assignment until he crosses paths with Ruth Ann. His departed best friend's sister has grown into a fearless, beautiful woman, but she's as patriotic and independent as he is disillusioned. No matter how often Jonah warns her the factory is not worth fighting for, Ruth Ann can't be convinced to take her mother and siblings and run away. When Ruth Ann finds herself face to face with an army, she realizes she should have never fought for a cause she didn't understand, while Jonah must decide between what is honorable and true, and what to do about the woman who stole his heart. Can love be found in a country torn by war? This clean and wholesome romance is a short novel set at the close of the Civil War.
