As a young girl, Miriam must flee her home in a Lamanite village to escape her birthright—to be offered as a sacrifice to the Lamanite gods. During her flight in the deep jungles, Miriam crosses paths with Jacob, a young Nephite soldier who saves her life and leads her to safety among the Nephites.
Years later, now a young woman, Miriam meets Jacob again. She is surprised to find that the sisterly affection she felt for him so long ago has developed into something deeper. But before she or Jacob can discover their true feelings for one another, war comes to the lands of the Nephites, and both Miriam and Jacob find themselves thrown into a whirlwind of struggles. As they fight to keep their faith alive, they are drawn even closer together.

"This book is written for those who like adventure. The description of the world around Miriam is so realistic that I felt as though I was there with her. This is a great story for young women to read. Miriam is strong, spiritual and loving. This is a must read for those with an adventurous spirit fit for the times of the Nephite & Laminite nations!"
"The Birthright is wonderfully written. I was pulled into the story so quickly. With the descriptions of the characters, their surroundings, etc. I became part of the story as though I was welcomed as an invisible character enjoying, helping & being part of Miriam's adventures."
