Bertha, is a slave on Master Jackson's plantation in Mississippi before the start of the American Civil War. She is young, sassy, driven, head-strong, and beautiful.
Bertha is allowed to work inside of the big house, which is taboo at the time because of her darker skin color. Upon starting working inside of the house she is met with many unexpected challenges that she has to overcome and these challenges do not prepare her for her biggest challenge yet, when she meets a similarly feisty Julia, who is the niece of Master Jackson.
Julia's and Bertha's personalities clash initially however, they eventually develop an unspoken friendship through unlikely circumstances and their mutual adoration starts to develop that contradicts their time, their circumstance, and their race.
