The love between a Union officer's daughter and a Cherokee man is threatened by the Civil War in this sweeping romance by a New York Times-bestselling author. A "passionate tale of Native American history, family feuds, and romance," this saga by a multimillion-selling author begins in Springfield, Massachusetts, in May 1860 (Booklist). The Civil War looms as nineteen-year-old Diane Parmelee, spirited daughter of a Union officer, reunites with her former childhood sweetheart, the broodingly handsome Cherokee Lije Stuart. Passions flare once again between the blond beauty and the accomplished Harvard University law student. But as two hearts come together, the promise of marriage is short-lived. Despite her undying love, Diane can't bring herself to accept Lije's conditions for their future. Lije expects them to build a life where his proud allegiance lie: on the plantations of his Cherokee family, and in turn, the Confederacy. But for Lije and Diane, it's just the beginning of a conflict that will tear families apart and reopen the wounds of violent rivalries born out of the historic Trail of Tears-and will end only when divided loyalties and revenge threaten to shatter the meaning of heritage and honor. Through it all, only true love can hope to survive. Legacies was previously published as American Destiny.

The is the second part of an awesome story about the Cherokee nation. Janet Dailey did a fantastic job in researching the history of what happen to this great nation. She makes you understand what travisties were done to them because of greed and lies. You become part of the struggle, and you feel the pride that they maintained through it all. I hope she is hard at work on part three.
