“One of the best romantic and exciting novels I have read!!”—Shirley, Goodreads
The unforgettable frontier love story of the warrior who kidnaps a young English lady in the colonies and she finds ecstasy in his tender savage touch.
Katelyn Locke sets sail to America, her heart singing about her new life to be as a bride. She beholds America’s virgin shores with wonder until her cowardly fiancé abandons her in the forest when they are attacked by Indians. In the first moments she faces her captor in terror.
The warrior Night Fox reaches out and touches her cheek. What fool would leave a treasure like this behind? He is bewitched by his tribe’s newest captive. Her lustrous hair is red like the fox’s, her silky skin reminds him of the yellow wildflower. He yearns to kiss the tears from her cheeks. He wants to taste the honey of her lips.
”I hate you,” Katelyn trembles so much she can barely get the words out.
”No, you don’t hate me. You fear me, but you don’t hate me.” Night Fox is so close. Katelyn has never heard a man’s husky whisper.
She meets his haunting black eyes without flinching. “Yes I do,” she lies. “I hate you because you kidnapped me, because you made your slave…” I hate you because I can’t despise you the way I should.
He senses her surrender to his forbidden caress. Fox pulls her close, savoring the warmth of her damp skin beneath his touch.
She trembles in his grasp, unable to tear her eyes from his. She remembers the taste of his mouth on hers. “I hate you because you touch me.”
“Do not be afraid.”
She lets herself be drawn into his arms. No one has ever tried to comfort her, no one has ever cared. Why this man, she wonders, as she bends his head towards her. Why the enemy?
