Ten years have passed since Molly Hartās ranch was attacked, her folks murdered, and she was abducted. Now, at nineteen, sheās finally returning home to North Texas after spending the remainder of her childhood with a tribe of Kwahadi Comanche.

Matt Ryan is pushed by a restless wind to the broken-down remains of the Hart ranch. Recently recovered from an imprisonment that nearly ended his life, the drive for truth and fairness has all but abandoned him. For ten years he faithfully served the U.S. Army and the Texas Rangers, seeking justice for the brutal murder of a little girl, only to find closure and healing beyond his grasp. Returning to the place where it all began, heās stunned to encounter a woman with the same blue eyes as the child he canāt put out of his mind.
A sensuous historical western romance set in 1877 Texas.
