In nineteenth-century Texas, two tough-minded women dare to challenge the status quo in a warm, witty, and adventurous historical romance by New York Times bestselling author Carolyn Brown.
Daisy Lindberg and Lily Boyle traded a colorful past for a fresh start as seamstresses in Autrie, Texas, and their aim to spark a women's rights movement is raising eyebrows among the town's dumbfounded men. But among the ladies? Tired of being treated like possessions, they have two words: Amen, sister!
Beulah, a sassy shop owner as formidable as a cannon shot, is on board. So is Alma, a timid preacher's wife who hit her breaking point. Before long, a courageous female posse has a liberating petition of demands. Surprisingly, they also have an empathetic ear in sheep rancher Matt Maguire, who's as keen on women's independence as he is on Lily.
As Daisy and Lily make waves in the small town, their secrets threaten to come out. But they haven't traveled this far to let their past define them. In fact, with love and the forging of new lives on the line, they've never felt more defiant.
