About Golden Siblings

From the cotton fields of antebellum Arkansas to the heart of California’s Gold Rush, this lush, historical saga follows the bittersweet journey of a plantation owner’s daughter in her quest for personal freedom.

Without her mother, separated from her twin brother, and oppressed by her cruel and philandering father, Diana McCallum is a rebellious and feisty young woman. Her best friend is a slave girl named Drum, and Diana doesn’t care about their differences in status or color. Her disapproving father sends Diana away to boarding school, where her defiance soon gets her expelled.

Later, to escape the torture of a brutal marriage, Diana stows away on a wagon train headed to California. During the grueling journey west, Diana encounters unexpected love, danger, and adventure. And when Drum appears, she brings with her a secret that will change Diana’s life forever.

A successful blend of history and fiction, Golden Siblings reveals the emotional turmoil and racial prejudices of pre–Civil War America and explores the lure of the forbidden, the value of independence, the power of secrets, and the irrepressible ties of family.
