Though flattered by his attention, she is drawn to Liam Donohue, a local Irish artisan. As Daughtie and Liam work together to help runaway slaves, their friendship blossoms. But her work in the mills is threatened when a downturn in profits causes the Associates to decrease wages—resulting in plans for a strike. With the fate of the textile industry in an upheaval, will her hopes for love be thwarted as dissention infiltrates life in Lowell?

Daughtie Winfield is a Shaker, raised to believe that equality should come for everyone in the world and not just a chosen few. She is surprised when her beliefs cause hostility in her work environment and danger to those around her. This book is # 3 in the "Bells of Lowell" series, and is considered a Christian romance. I enjoyed the historical aspect of the book very much, and would encourage those who enjoy a good historical novel to read it, even if you don't like romance novels.
