Kidnapped by Sioux Indians as a child, Teressa Bryant was raised as a beloved member of their tribe. Ten years have erased the memory of her abduction — and of her true family. Now called Winter Rain, she is on the verge of accepting the marriage proposal of a warrior — until a handsome stranger appears, searching for the girl with the deep blue eyes ...

Half Lakota and half-white, Chance McCloud is known to his mother's people as Wolf Shadow. Hired by Winter Rain's birth parents to bring her home, Chance soon finds himself torn between his obligation and the enchanting woman who has roused his untamed longing ...

It doesn't take long for searing passion to throw Winter Rain's history — and future — into question. But if she agrees to return to the life she once knew, can she leave behind the man who has claimed her, body and soul?
