Hero Such as Heaven Intended

HEAVEN INTENDED SERIES

In besieged Atlanta during Sherman's brutal March to the Sea, a fierce Southern spitfire and a conflicted Cherokee Union soldier forge an unlikely bond that could save—or doom—them both.

During the Civil War, Theresa Lundgren’s world unravels in besieged Atlanta. Trapped by encroaching Union forces, a desperate act costs her step-brother his life and forever alters her own, and that of Sergeant Joseph Laurent, a Cherokee soldier questioning his loyalty to the Union cause. Theresa, an ambitious Southern spitfire, and Joseph, a man torn between conscription’s demands and his pacifist roots, couldn’t be more different. With the city under siege and their lives in jeopardy, can Theresa and Joseph bridge their divide to survive the war’s final assault, or will the flames of conflict consume their chance at love?
