The Charleston harbor shimmers with beauty and power. It’s a city of divided worlds: the privileged and the laborers.
Helen Woodard has grown up surrounded by luxury, and her future seems secure in a pending engagement to the charming and powerful Charles Wellman. But beneath her polished composure stirs a longing for something more.
For John Doherty, a young mechanic new to the city, Charleston offers a chance to prove himself. To build something honest and lasting with his own two hands. But when a draft notice arrives, his dreams are upended.
And for Lucas Woodard, Helen’s brother, life has always been easy. His future of privilege also seems certain, but tensions arise when he fails to meet his father’s expectations.
As 1917 dawns and America joins the war, Charleston becomes a city of blurred lines: where loyalty wavers, love defies logic, and whispers of betrayal stir in drawing rooms and shipyards alike.
In Emily Ann’s second novel, Where I Stand, war tests the limits of class and the depths of the human heart, revealing how courage, sacrifice, and unexpected love can rise from the ashes of a divided world.
