For her sixteenth birthday, Damita De Salvado receives a beautiful slave girl, Rissa, but mistreats her, revealing Damita's prejudice and hardening Rissa's heart. When her family experiences financial hardships, Damita grudgingly sells Rissa to a mysterious Christian doctor, Jefferson Whitman, who is Rissa's adopted brother. Now the tables have turned: Rissa is a wealthy, free woman, while Damita's family struggles to keep the plantation. Will both women find the love and security they long for?
This book was exactly what I had expected. It is sincere and encouraging spiritual help. It's like talking to a friend when you don't have one around physically. Also, I love G.Morris's sense of humor. He is very open and nonjudgemental Chistian writer; that is mostly what attracts me in his books. The plot is fasinating, as usual, with his books. You are never bored till the end, and the end is always optimistic.
I loved this book

This is one of my favorite books by the Morris family. I loved the whole story. I think that it was sweet that everyone feel in love at the end.
