SummaryEmily Ambrose had her share of dark days. Her birth father
abandoned her in the wilds of the Michigan Territory, and
Indians slaughtered her adoptive missionary parents. Of
that had come some good, though; through her rescuer, she'd
discovered passion. Yet he, too, was destined to leave.
After one summer of bliss, Swift Foot was gone, and Emily
found herself in the care of a trapper.
She was no longer looking for love. That had come and
gone, and now Emily was seeking safety. Big John Cartier
promised it. But the handsome mountain man also pledged
something else. He vowed a steady devotion, a desire to
vanquish all the dangers yet to come. In his arms, Emily
began to understand: The hot sparks of a season's passion
flare bright, but they fade. It is the unquenchable flame
of true love that lights one's life. And with that
knowledge came a surety that tomorrow would be brighter
than any day she's ever known.
