Morrow Little is haunted by the memory of the day her family was torn apart by raiding Shawnee warriors. Now that she is nearly a grown woman and her father is ailing, she must make difficult choices about the future. Several men — ranging from the undesired to the unthinkable — vie for her attentions, but she finds herself inexplicably drawn to a forbidden love that both terrifies and intrigues … intrigues her. Can she betray the memory of her lost loved ones — and garner suspicion from her friends–by pursuing a life with him? Or should she seal her own misery by marrying a man she doesn’t love?
This sweeping tale of romance and forgiveness will envelop readers as it takes them from a Kentucky fort through the vast wilderness to the west in search of true love.
