Friends since early youth, Ross & Emily had a shaky beginning. They became blood brother and sister - a pact they saw differently but binding just the same. Just months before Ross left to join the Civil War, they had a disagreement that caused a wedge in their friendship. Soon after joining, Ross was reported dead. Emily left town to live with an aunt in Baltimore. Upon returning to town for her beloved father's funeral, Emily discovers Ross is alive. Many complications threaten to totally sever their friendship. Will they be able to establish a friendship again or will their lives turn in different directions.This is a love story which becomes very complicated and involves the love and paths of several others.So often in live choices cause our paths to turn turn different directions that are regrettable but to change directions often affect others lives and happiness. This is one of those tales.It was well-written but, at times, repetitive. The author, however, managed to keep the intrigue throughout the story. The detailed sex scenes were unnecessary and unappreciated. Although during that time period, there were sexual indiscretions, the verbally detailed experience seems out of context.
