Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
The improbable romance of Kirsten Weber and Wilshire Patten unfolds against the backdrop of the intense Battle of Antietam fought near Sharpsburg, Maryland in 1862. Kirsten is drawn into the raw realities of the Civil War as a volunteer nurse. Her pacifist beliefs give her fortitude to help the wounded and the dying, but they also collide with those of the Union surgeon for whom she has developed an unforgettable attraction. Her struggle to save the life of a wounded Rebel who stumbles onto her family's farm brings an interesting twist to this powerful story told with remarkable historical accuracy.
