She is called Copper-Headed Woman—a legend among trappers and Indians alike. Abducted while still a child, she mastered the ancient arts of the Crow Indians as she grew into ravishing womanhood—and suffered at the hands of a cold and brutal mate. Banished from her tribe by those who fear her powerful medicine, she has steeled her heart against all men—until destiny leads her to Tucker Jones. A handsome, tormented soldier fleeing war’s devastation, he was ambushed and left for dead. And now, in the midst of great danger, in a land without mercy, young Cooper will soothe Tucker’s body and spirit, haunt his dreams with her breathtaking beauty…and blossom gloriously in the passionate rapture of his gentle, loving touch.
