Southern Rose

An actress playing both sides of the Civil War divide to save a friend and find love is a genuinely compelling setup, and the theatrical profession gives the heroine more texture than the typical Pinnacle historical heroine. But the documentation is thin, the publication date is uncertain, and the plot mechanics lean hard on coincidence in the way that 1980s mass-market historicals often did. Fans of the era who track down a copy will likely have a good time; it is too undocumented to recommend broadly.
