Abigail Trent was very young when she left the world she knew to forge her destiny with a half-breed Cheyenne brave, Lone Eagle. But now, as Civil War raged across the land, their love was put to the harshest test of all. For even in the peaceful New Mexico territory, they couldn't escape the violence of a country in upheaval. Soon fate would thrust them apart; soon Lone Eagle would be forced to leave the rapture of Abigail's arms to face the horrors of the white man's war. Yet they knew that one day they would be together again—free once more to share the dreams and the ecstasy of their wild, willful love.
