Big Zack Trimble watched the wedding party dancing around the cabin and shook his head. Not for him! He liked the primitive Indian life. Drink when you're thirsty, eat when you're hungry and grab a brown-skinned girl when the mood was on you. All the women here were pale, thin specimens. Then Zack saw Mariposa, studied her full breasts, slanting eyes and moist mouth. Never had he seen anyone so ripe for love. He walked toward her. What Zack didn't know was that she was expecting him! Out of the trackless Northwest comes this surging novel of men and women who conquered the wilderness but could not control themselves!
