"exciting and insightful Indian romance"
In Buffalo Springs, Chance McCloud is playing cards when
Edward Bryant approaches him with an offer of $500 for
twenty minutes of his time. Edward asks Chance to find his
daughter stolen by the Sioux a decade ago. Chance tells
the man that he is wasting his money, as his daughter is
Indian. Edward's wife Rosalia appears pleading for
Chance's help even as her husband increases the pot to
$15,000. After seeing Rosalia, Chance is confident he
knows where to find Teresa. Chance visits the tribe that raised him as a half-breed to
inform Blue Rain that her birth name is Teresa and her
biological parents want her to come home. Blue Rain
expects to wed a tribesman though she is attracted to
Chance known among the tribe as Wolf Shadow, but tells him
she is happy with her life. She does not
want to leave so Chance takes her white parents to the
tribe to see her even as he finds himself falling in love
with her. Known for her Indian romances, award winning Madeline Baker
provides her readers with an exciting and insightful tale.
The lead protagonists are a charming pair and the support
cast adds depth to the novel. Though difficult choices are
resolved rather easily, fans will appreciate this warm
Indian romance. Harriet Klausner
