In April 1860, Dr. Ryder Cole returns home from his studies, sure of his abilities and on fire to serve his country and preserve the Union.

Then she disappears, returning as Tom Boyde, his comrade throughout America's Civil War, and as Diana, met in a Washington D.C. whore house. The seven Aprils from 1860 to 1866 tell their tale of love and war, sex and friendship. And the price of crossing gender lines.

In April 1860, Dr. Ryder Cole returns home from his studies, sure of his abilities and on fire to serve his country and preserve the Union. A panther attack threatens to cut his life short until a young woman with a rife and a sure-shot eye appears out of the mist. Then she disappears, re-turning as Tom Boyde, his comrade throughout America's Civil War, and as Diana, met in a Washington D.C. whore house. The seven Aprils from 1860 to 1866 tell their tale of love and war, sex and friendship. And the price of crossing gender lines.Editorial Reviews"Eileen Charbonneau pens an emotion-filled tale. Through her story of love, comradeship and struggle through the Civil War, Seven Aprils illuminates women's hidden role in history by a mas-ter at bringing the past to life. Not to be missed!" -Joanne Pence, USA Today bestselling author"This epic story offers a tale of love and hope, forged and tempered by the fury of the American Civil War. Seven Aprils is certain to enthrall readers."-Jenna Kernan Publishers Weekly Bestselling author of Winter Woman"Eileen Charbonneau's latest novel, Seven Aprils, moves with the subtle sweep of her best fiction and confirms her place in the literary tradition of Willa Cather." -- Robert Crooke, author of American Family and The Chastened Heart"Seven Aprils is full of rollicking adventure, steamy romance, great historical content, and even a little espionage. A true page turner, Seven Aprils keeps the reader riveted to the very end." Eileen O'Finlan, Author of Kelegeen"Eileen Charbonneau has written a beautiful story of friendship becoming love against the background of the Civil War. The writing is both lush and terse and is a brilliant story. I didn't want Seven Aprils to end." -Janet Lane Walters, author of The Amber Chronicles

Pittman, Jude

For generations the Woods family has lived and prospered in the hill settlement of Stony Clove in the Catskills of New York state. And fifteen-year-old Lily Woods takes pride in her family's unique and distinctive heritage: a mixture of Native American, French, Dutch, and Scottish. But in 1851 the country is being torn apart in a bitter struggle over slavery, and for Lily the harmony of the hills she has grown to cherish is about to be shattered. First, Lily's sister, a teacher, is nearly killed in an arson attack on a school for young Negroes. Then, in a raid on a neighboring community of freedmen, slave catchers kidnap Kikoyo North - a family friend - and her two children. Furious and heartbroken, Lily decides she must do something to help free her friend. That's when she learns about her family's secret business. For years the Woods have been "conductors" on the Underground Railroad - a network of freedmen and abolitionists who help slaves escape to freedom. The Woods concoct an elaborate plan to rescue the Norths. But the risks are many; arrest, imprisonment, and the knowledge that if they should fail, they will have condemned the Norths to a life of slavery. If Lily has learned one thing growing up in the hills, it is that nothing is more precious than freedom...
