Trail Of Crosses — Jo Grafford

Jane Mannering can shoot a rifle, throw a knife, and handle a sword as well as any Englishman. However, she is no match for the red-painted warriors who ambush her section of the Colonial caravan the moment they beach their rafts on the shores of Virginia.
 
When Chief Wanchese intercepts them at the crossroads of the Great Trading Path, Jane's worst fears are realized. It's a pity the handsome devil happens to be the most ruthless and feared tribal chief in the region. Engaging his attentions was certainly never a part of her escape plan!
