Love Medicine — Suzanne Carey

CORNSILK WOMAN

Young Diana Bailey couldn't help but notice Rafe Marquez, with his Navaho cheekbones and aristocratic Spanish features. Then she had to leave for medical school. The whole town knew how her father felt about Indians .but no one in the East e measured up to her memory of Rafe.

Ironically, it was her father's stroke that brought her back West--and into the arms of the only man she'd ever wanted. Diana was irresistibly drawn to Rafe's fierce, protective spirit. He opened her eyes and her heart to a past she'd never known. She was his cornsilk woman, he, her coyote man. Together they had a love that couldn't be denied.
