Laura Gray was torn from her home and family by the nightmare of an Indian uprising. Lost and alone, the fragile beauty bore her neighbors' contempt--and a murderer's child.

Desperate to find a refuge for herself and for the son she had come to love, she fled to the wilderness.
Yet even in the echoing forest she found no peace. For as the drums of war beat ever closer, Laura had to face her growing passion and learn to trust the enigmatic Stormwalker--the man she feared was her mortal enemy.

Her parents were killed, she was raped and left to death by one Native American, rescued by another, then she strived to live, was shunned by her community, again strived, again was rescued. And after all they lived happily ever after.

Well, there was more to the story than that, I just wanted to say that all this struggling and pain and so on is something I'd rather not read about.

3 stars only because the problems of native communities starting to learn to live side by side with the white men was even interesting. And the writing wasn't bad ;)
