Honor Bound (Silhouette Intimate Moments, No 144)
Honor Bound - Silhouette Intimate Moments, No 144 Author:Erin St. Claire Aislinn Andrews returns home to her condo in Arizona one evening to find escaped convict, half-Navajo Indian Lucas Greywolf raiding her refrigerator. He had intended to be gone before she returned home, but now he had no choice other than to take her hostage. She is frightened by the hint of brutality and at the same time drawn to his raw sexual... more »ity. He resents everything about her, since she represents to him the white oppressors of his people. They flee across the state, avoiding police roadblocks, to their final destination, which is to be at the deathbed of his revered grandfather. When she sees him in his world among his people, Aislinn realizes that Lucas is not the cruel, unemotional criminal that he has portrayed.
Lucas is recaptured and finishes out his sentence. Since Aislinn chose not to report that he had kidnapped and held her hostage, his sentence was not extended. When he is released from prison less than a year later, his first stop is to visit Aislinn and thank her for not turning him in. The relationship that began through their chance meeting a year earlier is not over, not surprisingly, since the book is only half over.
Thus begins the next phase of their relationship, which is full of misunderstandings and surprises. They have so much to learn about each other and each has to set aside many stereotypes and biases to discover the person beneath the skin color.« less
