"Totally awesome!"
In this continuing saga of the family of White Wolf and
Jessie, we meet Jessie's brother, Jeremy Jones. Jeremy has
been living with the Lakota Sioux for three years, since
the day his sister married their chief. All this time he
has loved WHITE DOVE, White Wolf's sister, and has been
trying to impress her in the hopes that she would marry
him. He has slowly earned the respect of the tribe with
his tender care of the children and even by raising two
bear cubs. But will he ever win WHITE DOVE's love? WHITE DOVE has grown up skilled as a warrior. In fact, she
is better than many male warriors. It is her dream to find
a man that will respect her as a warrior and not expect her
to give up that which she loves, hunting. Does such a man
exist? Greed and jealousy arrive in the form of another Sioux
warrior who wants WHITE DOVE for himself. Not out of love
but to gain the power of her family and become a chief one
day. As Jeremy continues to prove himself as a capable
warrior, this warrior becomes more and more jealous and
threatens any future for Jeremy and WHITE DOVE. Will Jeremy
save WHITE DOVE from this warrior and prove to her that he
is the mate she searches for? Totally awesome! Susan Edwards once again proves to be an
outstanding writer of Native American romance. Deeply
interweaving the native culture while telling a wonderful
love story, this book does not disappoint. This is the
final book in the series of the children of Golden Eagle
and White Wind and is a true winner. Superbly written it
had me laughing and crying and begging for more. A box of
Kleenex is definitely needed for this keeper.

SummaryWhite Dove had been raised to know that
she must marry a powerful warrior.
The
daughter of the great Golden Eagle
was
required to wed one of her own kind,
a man
who would bring honor to her people
and
strength to her tribe. Her pride
would have
required it, even if her duty had
not. But
the young Irishman who returned to
seek
her hand made her question herself
and
made her question what made a man.
Jeremy Jones had changed since last
theyíd
met. The Oregon Trail had hardened
him,
and he was clearly no longer a boy.
Heíd
come back to the Nebraska Territory
with
both a glint in his eye and a desire
that
made White Dove tingle with
pleasure.
Heíd returned to be trained as a
warrior, to
take the tests of manhood and prove
himself
in battle. Watching him, White Dove
saw a
bravery sheíd never known, and
suddenly
she realized her young suitor was
not just a
man, he was the only one sheíd ever
love.
