Southern Legacy
A nation divided. A family torn apart. A love determined to endure.
Set amid the beauty and turmoil of antebellum Charleston, the Southern Legacy series is a sweeping historical-romance saga of love, loyalty, sacrifice, and a family caught in the gathering storm of the Civil War.
Cousins Wade Montgomery and Cullen Smythe were raised as brothers, bound by a shared devotion to family, honor, and duty. They believed nothing could come between them—until Josephine Buchanan Wright entered their lives. As complicated feelings threaten their lifelong bond and the nation moves toward secession, the cousins find themselves drawn to opposing causes.
Soon, the men who once stood side by side must face each other from different battlefields.
While war shatters families and transforms the South forever, the people they love struggle to survive on the home front. Among them is Miss Hazel, a formerly enslaved woman whose hard-won freedom is shadowed by one unwavering purpose: finding the son taken from her.
From Charleston’s grand homes and Southern plantations to the devastation of brother-against-brother warfare, Southern Legacy weaves intimate love stories through one of America’s darkest chapters. Every choice carries a price, every promise is tested, and every heart must decide where true loyalty lies.
Can love survive a nation at war? Can a family divided ever become whole again? And when everything familiar has been swept away, what legacy will remain?
