warrior. And when her life is torn asunder by unspeakable
tragedy, he is her only hope. Andrew MacDonnell is entranced
by the vision of a beautiful woman who has always dwelt in

journey to the New World to find her... Their quest to find
each other across a treacherous wilderness will test the
limits of courage and endurance, guided only by their
dreams--and by the belief in the true love they share.."--
