Loved it. :)

Hannah is a slave from the Stafford plantation sent to Charleston, South Carolina with Elizabeth to learn dress making skills while she is at boarding school. It gets her away the boredom of plantation life, adds to her value as a slave, and also allows her to help other runaway slaves along the Underground Railroad. She enjoys her work very much and has met a young man, a free man of color named Joshua and the two are close friends, possibly more; but Hannah has sworn to never fall in love or marry until she has better control of her future. She wants to make her own choices, not have them decided for her and she doesn't want to always have to worry about the fact that her children can and would be taken for her and sold to someone else. While in Charleston, her employer tells her that due to the war, she can no longer afford to keep Hannah and that she is being sent back to Virginia. This upsets Hannah greatly and she tells Elizabeth, who decides to come back with her, if only to help Hannah avoid her father's wrath; the man is a tyrant at home and any slave caught in it could be punished by a whipping or death. Hannah does a good job of avoiding him and continues to work on the Underground Railroad, using it herself one night to escape with Joshua and a group of slaves when he was passing by. They make it to freedom but Hannah soon comes back down south to get a young slave girl they had met on the run and discovers that Elizabeth has been locked into her bedroom for disobeying her father and trying to buy Hannah back when he sold Hannah and Joshua to the auction block. Elizabeth's brother tried to help her and was thrown out for his actions, leaving for their cousin Lucy's home in Washington City. Their father has told everyone that Elizabeth has lost her mind and that's why she's locked up. Hannah breaks Elizabeth out and the group of three takes off up north. While on the run Hannah and Elizabeth talk and while asking if Hannah knows who her father is, Elizabeth reveals that she's overheard other women talking about the fact that Hannah looks a lot like her. I love this series, I'm so happy I found the third book in it, wish I could find the fourth.

Very nice, dramatic

it seems cheryl zach has done it again. this book tells about heartbreak and compassion. during the civil war, hannah, who was trying to escape, is caught by her slave master. through courage and love, hannah and elizabeth stafford manage to escape slavery's clutches.

Southern Angels A Dream of Freedom

This book mixed action, adventure, and romance all in one. I really enjoyed this book because it protrayed a young Afican-American girl as having courage and an education do to the time period it set in. I commend the author for writing a novel with the combination and suspense every book should have. I look forward to reading the others in the series.

Another great Southern Angels book!

Hannah is a slave girl on the Stafford plantation in Virginia. She risks her life to help other slaves escape, and one dark night, Hannah herself takes a daring run for freedom. But she's caught, and now she can lose everything - her life, her freedom, and the love of her life.
