Description
With the English and the French at each other's throats, struggling for control of the North American continent, the battle lines have been drawn, changing forever the fates of a Mohawk warrior and a desperate woman on the run.
After Marisa Jameson overhears her uncle's plot to destroy a Dutch town for his own gain, she threatens to expose him -- and is forced to run for her life. Preferring to brave the war outside rather than the more dangerous one at home, she accepts an invitation to visit a friend.
Mesmerized by Marisa's beauty, a Mohawk warrior named Black Eagle volunteers to act as her guide through the wild forests of New England. However, he soon senses an unexpected danger and comes to suspect Marisa may not be all that she appears.
Caught in the cross fire of a war, and with a deadly assassin hot on their trails, Marisa and Black Eagle discover that trusting each other is the only way to outrun the enemy -- and that love may be the only way to survive.
