Description
April 18, 1906. A massive earthquake has decimated much of the Golden City, leaving thousands without food, water, or shelter. Patrolling the streets to help those in need, Army corporal Ben Tilson meets a young woman named Charlotte who touches his heart, making him think of a future with her in it. In the heat of the moment he makes a promise to her younger sister that even he realizes will be almost impossible to keep.
Because on the heels of the earthquake, a much worse disaster looms: a fire that threatens to consume everything and everyone in its path. It will take everything Ben’s got to make it back to Charlotte and her family—and even that may not be enough.
The Promise, a stand-alone novella, is the third offering in A.B. Michaels’ award-winning historical saga, The Golden City, which takes place in and around San Francisco at the turn of the twentieth century.
