Wonderful book. The storyline hooks the reader in from the very beginning. This is my own review, not taken from any book or insert.
Privileged Jennifer Andrews, the red haired beauty from St. Louis, has to make a difficult life decision following the death of her beloved aunt. A decision which, ultimately leads to a shocking and dizzying destiny that has her crossing paths and into the arms of mysterious Wade Morrow, who is seeking a destiny of his own. Jennifer quickly learns the hardships women have to endure in the West. Especially when after all she endures, the man she is a mail order bride for, is far worse then any threat of the wild.
Wade Morrow, the handsome, rugged, and wealthy partner of his adopted family's business cannot resist the urge to find the family that left him behind as a baby. Wade has had to endure prejudice and contempt from people his whole life because he is half Comanche Indian, the most hated people in the West. When the beautiful Jennifer gets in trouble, he cannot help but step in and take care of her and falls in love with her beauty and her heart.
Together and seperately, they face trials and tribulations that keep the reader hoping that it is their destiny to be together.
Not your standard Native American romance,
