About the book
Cavalry Captain Austin Shaw knew his aristocratic Boston family would never accept how the Cheyenne beauty had stolen his heart. Refusing to be a burden to him, the proud Wiwila fled, carrying their unborn child. But their paths would cross again in the aftermath of the bloody battle at Little Big Horn. Nearly fifteen years later, an injured brave wearing a jeweled Shaw family ring is captured at Wounded Knee. Shipped eastward against his will, the half-breed known as Colt must at last confront his heritage.In Boston, Colt comes under the tutelage of Miss Samantha MacGregor, a young governess hired to civilize him. Convinced her prim exterior hides a passionate heart, Colt vows to reward her efforts with lessons of his own - lessons of love, loyalty and destiny.
