Summary: "As a young girl, Miriam must flee her home in a Lamanite village to escape her birthright to be offered as a sacrifice to the Lamanite gods. During her flight in the deep jungles, Miriam crosses paths with Jacob, a young Nephite soldier who saves her life and leads her to safety among the Nephites.

Years later, now a young woman, Miriam meets Jacob again. She is surprised to find that the sisterly affection she felt for him so long ago has developed into something deeper. But before she or Jacob can discover their true feelings for one another, war comes to the lands of the Nephites, and both Miriam and Jacob find themselves thrown into a whirlwind of struggles. As they fight to keep their faith alive, they are drawn even closer together."

Reviews:

"Her words flow so smoothly and the characters are real enough to touch. She made me care about the characters and how the story would be resolved. I can't say enough good things about the book, so I will just say to read it for yourself. You'll be glad you did."

"Again something nice and easy for the holiday, nothing too special and as the last two books actually bought by Avonia and as I happened to by out of books ... It's a very nice read though, with a good plot or rather mix of plots."
