Book Description
Surrender the Wind is the story of Seth
Braxton, a patriot of the American Revolution, who unexpectedly inherits
his loyalist grandfather’s estate in England. Seth is torn between the
land he fought for and the prospect of reuniting with his sister
Caroline, who was a motherless child taken to England at the onset of
the war.
With no intention of staying permanently, Seth arrives to find his sister grieving over the death of her young son. In the midst of such tragedy, Seth meets Juleah, the daughter of an eccentric landed gentleman. Her independent spirit and gentle soul steal Seth’s heart. After a brief courtship, they marry and she takes her place as the lady of Ten Width Manor, enraging the man who once sought her hand and schemed to make Ten Width his own.
From the Virginia wilderness to the dark halls of an isolated English estate, Seth and his beloved Juleah inherit more than an ancestral home. They uncover a sinister plot that leads to murder, abduction, and betrayal--an ominous threat to their new life, love, and faith.
