Sinopsis

In a wilderness where land is blood and beauty is currency, faith is the only weapon that can save her.


Spring 1846. California is a pastoral paradise on the brink of a bloody revolution.
Protestant Rachel Tyler is a woman of deep faith. She has survived a treacherous voyage from New England to reunite with a father she barely remembers…

Only to discover he saw her as nothing more than a bargaining chip.
A prize to be bartered to a neighboring rancher for land and power
Just as she faces a marriage of convenience to a stranger, she encounters Roman Vasquez, a fierce Californio lancer who represents everything she’s been taught to fear.

Roman is a man of war, carrying the scars of a violent past and a deep hatred for the American “wolves” at his door.
He blames Joshua Tyler for his father's death, yet he finds himself mesmerized by the “angel” who prays for his healing.
As the shadow of war descends and a web of dark magic threatens to tear them apart, Rachel and Roman must decide if their forbidden connection is a divine appointment or a terminal trap.

In a wilderness teeming with wolves and grizzlies, the only thing more dangerous than the coming revolution is the memory of who you used to be.

Fans of the sweeping historical romance of Laura Frantz and the high-stakes faith-driven drama of Francine Rivers will love this heart-pounding journey through the California wilderness.

Reseña del editor

A young woman finds her loyalties tested beyond limit and her desires torn beyond measure in 1846 California. After sailing around Cape Horn, and barely surviving the perilous journey, devout Protestant Rachel Tyler, arrives in California just in time for her father’s wedding and the unfolding of the Bear Flag Revolt. Though already engaged to marry a minister in Massachusetts, Rachel’s ambitious father arranges her betrothal to Roman Vasquez, a blue-blooded Catholic son of the gente de razón, the ruling class of California. Roman, a proud, Spanish soldier is ready to fight and die for his homeland. As the Yankee rebels raise their bear flag in Sonoma square, the last thing Roman wants is an arranged marriage to the American daughter of his enemy Joshua Tyler. But his Uncle Pedro, the Patrón of the family, has other plans. Neither Rachel nor Roman desire this unlikely engagement that assaults their religious beliefs, but they cannot escape the passion flaming between them as war looms on the horizon and bitter rivals rise up to destroy them amid the breathtaking backdrop of the last days of the Californios. Until the Day Breaks is the first book in the sweeping saga of California Rising, a tale of love, intrigue, and destiny, where passionate men and women lay the foundation of the Golden State with their very lives.
