After fleeing Virginia, Temperance Tucker and her family
established an inn along the Shawnee River. It's a welcome
way station for settlers and frontiersmen traveling through
the wild Cumberland region of Kentucke--men like Sion
Morgan, a Virginia surveyor who arrives at the inn with his
crew looking for an experienced guide. When his guide
appears, Sion balks. He certainly didn't expect a woman. But
it is not long before he must admit that Tempe's skill in
the wilderness rivals his own. Still, the tenuous tie they
are forming is put to the test as they encounter danger
after danger and must rely on each other.
With her signature sweeping style and ability to bring the
distant past to vivid life, Laura Frantz beckons readers to
join her in a land of Indian ambushes, conflicting
loyalties, and a tentative love that meanders like a cool
mountain stream.
