About the book
"You say you love my daughter. I forbid it! You have no right to interfere in her life so long as she is bound to another." So spoke the great Cheyenne warrior Two Hawks Flying, and Cloud Walker knew his harsh words were only too true. Serenely beautiful, sweetly tempting, Mary was tied to a man who despised her for her Indian heritage, but that gave Cloud Walker no right to claim her soft lips, to brand her yearning body with his savage love. Yet try as he might, he found it impossible to deny their passion, impossible to escape the scandal, the sorrow, the soaring ecstasy of their RECKLESS DESIRE.
