Description


As life with the Saints becomes too dangerous, will Bronwyn flee with her sister wife, or stay and fight for justice

The past year has meant both blessing and loss for Bronwyn Carey. After giving birth to a baby girl on the perilous trip to America, her husband is killed during an attack on their settlement. Then in accordance with Joseph Smith's new edict, Bronwyn became the second wife to her best friend’s husband Gabriel.

In loyalty to her best friend, Mary Rose, Bronwyn pledged to keep her relationship with Gabriel platonic. But she finds herself falling in love with the man who has promised to keep her safe—even as her heart breaks for her sister wife, who is secretly plotting her escape. When Brownyn makes a shocking discovery that reveals just how dedicated Brigham Young’s army is to loyalty and how far they will go to punish apostates, she finds herself confronted by an impossible choice. Will she stand by her best friend . . . or the only community she’s ever known

Back Cover

Ensnared in a religion she increasingly questions, Bronwyn faces an impossible choice. When recently widowed Bronwyn becomes the second wife to Gabriel MacKay, she promises her new sister wife and best friend, Mary Rose, that the marriage will remain platonic. But she finds herself falling in love with the man who has promised to keep her safe--even as her heart struggles with her promise to her friend. When Gabriel marries a third wife, and as the practice of polygamy increases and the age of brides decreases, Bronwyn begins to question the righteousness of this new religion. Even as the Saints journey to Salt Lake Valley, their new promised land, Bronwyn and Mary Rose plot their escape. But when they are suspected of treachery by Brigham Young's secret army--whose mission it is to punish apostates--the two sister wives face the most difficult decision of their lives, one that can mean life or death for those they love.
