Everything was fair in love and war as both the North and South escalate their fire at each other's children, relations, business associates, and lovers. Before this spring is over both parents and children will understand exactly how far they will or will not go to follow orders, make a profit, and protect the ones they consider their families whether by blood or bond of the heart. Have you ever wondered if you were adopted or exactly how you fit into the family that raised you? Well the young men and women of 1861 are quickly learning why they never saw a family resemblance, or why they seem to be more like an uncle or stranger than the father that raised them. For the adopted, sometimes it is a search among those you know for clues to who you are, who your parents might have been, and how you relate to the people in your life. Enjoy the adventures of the cadets, and their lovers as they try to negotiate a world being transformed by their parents, business leaders, and future military leaders for both the North and South.
