The year is 1847, a mere two years before Harriet Tubman escaped slavery. The carriages roll down the cobble streets of Savannah, Georgia. And James Rochard, a wealthy plantation owner, marries for prestige to Penelope Shaunessy, a banker’s daughter. Penelope is a very spoiled and prejudiced southern lady. Along life’s path James is tempted by and falls in love with his slave, Tess. He is married to one woman but is in love with another. What happens if James were to fall to his desires, if he lets temptation consume him? What will become of the forbidden love between James and Tess? What will happen as the hatred grows between James and his wife, Penelope, in a time when divorce was not commonly practiced? This riveting story of love, sin, repentance, and forgiveness may teach us all a little something. It will move you and make you love your fellow brother no matter his color.
