For passion burns like fire in their blood, as it propels Kate and Hawk across great waters to a new life in an unspoiled wilderness - where risk and rapture await them in the noble cause of freedom...and love.
SHAWNEE MOON 6/1995 ISBN:0380777053 Georgian and Colonial. Condemned for a desperate act, Cailin MacGreggor approaches the gallows frightened yet unbowed. But with a word, her young life will be spared—if she agrees to wed the despised enemy who destroyed her stepfather on the field of battle. When his Shawnee mother died, handsome half-breed Sterling Gray left the noble tribe that raised him—and crossed an ocean to become a British soldier and a gentleman. Now he is returning to his homeland with a breathtaking new bride—a Scottish hellion wearing an ancient Celtic necklace, whom he rescued from the hangman’s noose. And though his very presence inflames Cailin’s heart with vengeful fire, Sterling knows the dangerous beauty is his destiny—a love foretold in mystic visions that he must risk his passion, his pride, and his future to win.
