About the book

A high-spirited beauty, daughter of the furrier to the French king, Aimee Dessaline had led a sheltered life. But on one fateful afternoon her fate was sealed with a burning kiss... Vale - his sun-bronzed skin and buckskins proclaimed his Indian upbringing, but his words belied another heritage. Convinced that he was a spy, she vowed to forget him - this man they also called Valjean Etienne. Comte de la Tour. Marquis d’Auvergne. But not even the glittering court of Versailles where Parisian royalty courted her favors...not even the perils of the war-torn wilderness, could still her impetuous heart. For no other man could stir in her soul this gentle madness, this Sweet Wild Wind.
