From the time Emma Watts was a little girl, she was taught to be prejudice. Prejudice against black folks. She was taught they were different and something to be afraid of. Emma carried her prejudice with her into adulthood. She avoided black folks at all cost. But life has a strange way of forcing people to face what they fear. Emma finds herself trapped on a ranch after losing her entire family with no one to turn to but an abusive husband and a small band of former slaves who live on the ranch. Through desperation, Emma soon learns that her opinion and views of black folks couldn't be farther from the truth. She learns to trust those she once feared, to depend on them, to want their company, and, eventually, to even love them. Emma learns that the bonds of the heart has no color.
