Savage Splendor — Sue Deobold

Prim and proper Annabeth Allan had gone west to civilize the red man, but when the other members of her wagon train succumbed to smallpox, she found herself at the mercy of the very savages she had come to tame. Part Indian himself, rugged Eben McDowell taught her the ways of his Cheyenne brothers, and showed her the pleasures a missionary should never even imagine. Instead of converting heathens, Annabeth found herself glorying in the wild freedom of the frontier, and savoring the sweet ecstasy of love's Savage Splendor.
