About this listen

This captivating historical novel takes listeners inside the Cherokee Nation's tumultuous struggle for justice in the early 1830s and sweeps us away in a surprising and unforgettable love story. Temple Gordon is the daughter of an educated Cherokee leader and a young woman of uncommon beauty. Raised on her family's grand Southern plantation, Temple is fiercely devoted to Cherokee traditions and her lover, The Blade Stuart, a visionary committed to a new future for the tribe. But the existence of the Cherokee Nation — and the romance between Temple and The Blade — is tested by government pressure to surrender tribal territory and move west. While the Cherokees fight for their tribal land, Temple nearly loses everything she loves most — but also discovers an inner strength she never knew she possessed.
