From Amazon:
Marissa Williams, New Orleans debutante, travels by stage coach to begin her new life with her Uncle George after the death of her father. At a stage coach way station, Marissa survives a raid by a Comanche camp, however she is taken as captive. She is given to Wind Ryder as a gift because of a vision the tribes Chief, and also Wind Ryder's adoptive father, because she is to bring peace to the tribe. The surprise to Marissa is that Wind Ryder is a white man, taken as a captive as a young boy, and raised in the Comanche camp.

After denying his white heritage for years, Wind Ryder is surprised by the feelings Marissa (Shining Spirit) brings out in him, including a longing to return to the white world. After the death of his father, and a battle with his adoptive brother, Wind Ryder takes Marissa and returns her to her Uncle and the white world.

Lone Warrior is a great book. The struggle of Marissa at the Comanche camp and the struggle of Zach when he returns to the white world is written smoothly, with many supporting characters to make the book interesting. I highly recommend this book.
