Passion knows no prejudice.

Eva McCabe may have been raised in the genteel tea rooms of North Carolina, but she isn't one to surrender. Even after finding her husband's scalped and mutilated body in the field of their Oregon Territory land grant, she refuses to leave. But tenacity won't be enough. If she can't meet the grant's conditions of cultivation, she'll forfeit her independence and all 640 acres.

Hatchoq is a man of mixed blood and clashing heritage. His father's people tolerate him, and his mother's people want him dead. When he kills a rogue member of his clan to save a white, he's doomed to wander brutal lands alone.

Hatchoq camps on Eva's land and secretly lends the struggling widow some aid. Once his presence is discovered, Eva is torn between bitterness and need. Reluctantly, they work side by side, farming her land and navigating a burning attraction neither one wants. Love grows as stubborn walls of hurt and anger crumble, but can it survive? If Hatchoq stays, he must deny his Mojave identity or risk both their lives.
