Roxey Maynard is a beautiful, high-spirited young woman growing up in Lehi, Utah, during the mid-l 800s. A devout Latter-day Saint, she expects one day to marry a man who shares her beliefs. Her path is anything but smooth as she and her family become embroiled in many of the controversies surrounding Johnston's Army and the Utah War.
One fateful day, Roxey meets Johnny Randolph, a soldier with Johnston's Army and a gentile, who falls in love with her. While he charms and impresses her, she remains steadfast in her determination to marry only a Latter-day Saint. Eventually the two part ways, and Roxey pursues a teaching career in Salt Lake City. But will they meet again?

A compelling story for young adult readers as well as a general audience, it is set against the rich historical backdrop of Utah's vigorous conflict with the United States government. If you enjoy exciting history and intriguing romance, this novel is tailor-made for you!
