Beautiful Elise Laffont seems too young and alive to be a
widow at the age of twenty-five. But she is not grieving the
loss of her husband. The man had been a complete cad, abusing
her delicate womanhood until she could not stand the thought
of a man's desire. And so, despite her youth she is quite
content to remain alone, managing her small Louisiana farm
undisturbed. Just when Elise has begun to seek out a small
bit of independence for herself, an uprising of the fierce
Natchez Indians forces her to flee the farm, which represents
all the happiness she has ever known. In order to escape
massacre, she must become the mistress of a frighteningly
commanding half-blood...
Reynaud Chavalier is the son of a French nobleman and a
Natchez princess. His imposing stature and rugged masculine
beauty prove irresistible to Elise. But with her history of
abuse at the hands of her late husband, will she allow
herself to be calmed by his reassuring caresses? All she
wants is to be left alone...until she feels the power of
true love.
