Publisher's Summary

As a child, Hester Wyatt escaped slavery, but now the dark-skinned beauty is a member of Michigan's Underground Railroad, offering other runaways a chance at the freedom she has learned to love.

When one of her fellow conductors brings her an injured man to hide, Hester doesn't hesitate...even after she is told about the price on his head. The man in question is known as the "Black Daniel", a vital member of the North's Underground Railroad network. But Hester finds him so rude and arrogant, she begins to question her vow to hide him.

Galen Vachon is a member of one of the wealthiest free black families in New Orleans. He has turned his back on the lavish living he is accustomed to in order to provide freedom to those who are enslaved in the South. However, as he heals, he cannot turn his back on Hester Wyatt; he is determined to make this gorgeous and intelligent woman his own. Yet there are traitors to be discovered and slave catchers to be evaded before Hester and Galen can find the freedom that only true love can bring.

Contains mature themes.

Great Storyline as always!

This narrator was not the best, most of B.J audio books have been narrated by men which i think is more appropriate because her tales always have a strong male character. I have read Indigo and this narrator emasculated Galen. Also, her halting speech and monotone voice took alot to get use to. I am sad to see she is also narrorating Vivid another great B.J novel. Fortunately Ms Jenkins weaves such a great storyline that one can get over the narrators performance. In the future I think Thomas Penny or Kevin Free should stick with narrating Ms Jenkins historical romances!

could be better

An interesting story tarnished by mediocre performance, the narrator has an annoying tendency of pausing at inappropriate and odd places that significantly affect the flow. There are also incidents of passages that have been re-recorded and superimposed but these were poorly executed because they were of different tones and pitches, making them obviously out of place.
