    Bless This House begins the epic series about the history of the White House, nerve center of the world. In 1792 the new nation called it The American Palace, and as it rose above the Potomac, it symbolized the magnificence of the American dream. The House of Brand: two brothers, Jeremy the builder and Zebulon the adventurer. Rivals for Rebecca Breech, a lone woman competing in a man's world, but a blazing beauty whose ambitions were even greater than theirs. Together they formed a dynasty whose destiny is forever entwined with that of Washington, the Nation and the White House.

    Forged in Fury continues the epic begun in Bless This House. The White House is burned to the ground by the British in the War of 1812, but it will rise again. The dynasty begun by Jeremy and Zebulon Brand is fired once more by the tempestuous Rebecca — bound to one brother by law, and to the other by her own passionate blood. No one suspects that Rebecca, the reigning beauty in Washington, is also the anonymous firebrand journalist, Rebel Thorne, who inspires her countrymen in the nation's most dangerous hours.
