Keeper Of The Light - Avery Lesley M.

A passionate love story full of strength, faith, and fate.

"Has no one ever told you? Love changes you. Love changes everything."

The unthinkable has happened. There is war between the states, and even in the relative safety of the North, free spirited Katherine Lawrence feels its desecration. Once bathed in the warm light of home and family, she witnesses the bitter changes that are gradually bringing her world to ruin. Unable to make a choice that would go against everything she believes in, she is further devastated by the loss of Captain Devin Galloway, the man she loves but must live without. With a fierce determination to do the right thing, she faces the dangers ahead, never dreaming the war will invade her own backyard.

When Devin returns to Boston, their paths seem ever destined to cross. Cursing the Fates, Katherine has vowed to avoid him at all costs. But now he is in trouble. Can she find the strength to set aside her broken heart, risk his nearness, and save him in time, or will it prove to be the breaking point in her crumbling defenses? Can she run from the one thing she wants most in the world, or does Fate have other plans?

Devin is determined to stop the gun runners that he detests. This has become his purpose and his passion, and the only thing he wants more than to stop the runners, is to find the woman who captured his heart, bewitched him, and left him without an explanation. He believes in his cause. He believes he will find her. And he believes in Fate.
