1777. Albany, New York.
As battle cries of the American
Revolution echo in the distance, servants flutter about preparing for
one of New York society’s biggest events: the Schuylers’ grand ball.
Descended from two of the oldest and most distinguished bloodlines in
New York, the Schuylers are proud to be one of their fledgling country’s
founding families, and even prouder still of their three
daughters—Angelica, with her razor-sharp wit; Peggy, with her dazzling
looks; and Eliza, whose beauty and charm rival those of both her
sisters, though she’d rather be aiding the colonists’ cause than
dressing up for some silly ball.
Still, Eliza can barely
contain her excitement when she hears of the arrival of one Alexander
Hamilton, a mysterious, rakish young colonel and General George
Washington’s right-hand man. Though Alex has arrived as the bearer of
bad news for the Schuylers, he can’t believe his luck—as an orphan, and a
bastard one at that—to be in such esteemed company. And when Alex and
Eliza meet that fateful night, so begins an epic love story that would
forever change the course of American history.
In the pages of Alex and Eliza, #1 New York Times bestselling author Melissa de la Cruz brings to life the romance of young Alexander Hamilton and Elizabeth Schuyler.
