Her soaring ambition, loyalty, and suffering helps determine the future of the Republic of Texas as well as the United States. Though the women of her lineage are slaves, her determination to "be somebody special" prompts her to make choices that entangle her in an adventure of love, friendship, romance, rebellion, rapid change, disappointment, and joy during the days of slavery. Her triumphs and tragedies revolve around historically accurate events as she pursues a life of compromise and betrayal. Along the way, the reader is swept into a web of drama and excitement, building up to the Battle of San Jacinto and the surrender of Generalissimo Santa Anna de Lopez's sword, army and Mexico's claim of the frontier land of Texas to General Sam Houston and his ill-disciplined Texan troops..
