In the spring of 1822, Ellie Ballantyne leaves finishing school and opens a day school for young ladies. When one of her students turns out to be an incorrigible young member of the Turlock family, Ellie knows she must walk a fine line. Slaveholders and whiskey magnates, the Turlocks are envious of the powerful Ballantynes and suspicious of their abolitionist leanings. As Ellie becomes increasingly entangled with the rival clan, particularly the handsome Jack Turlock, she finds herself falling in love with an impossible future. Will she betray her family and sleep with the enemy?
