This book is about a man - Hawk, who is half Native American and White. His mother had an affair with a white man, who was married and denied that Hawk was his son for 33 years. For so long, growing up, Hawk wanted to be recognized by his father. It's sad when a man denies his child, even when the child favors him. No child wants to be denied by a mother or father.
Hawk has a new neighbor name Jenny. She was running away from her abusive ex-husband Roy. When they were married, the man does something to her that was purely evil. I know that some women stay with men that beats them. I'm glad that Jenny left Roy. He didn't deserve her.
Jenny and Hawk meet and although she was afraid to move on, she started liking Hawk, inspite of all the bad rumors that was going around about him. Jenny was even warned to stay away from Hawk. Hawk wasn't a bad person, people just never gotten the chance to know him. They saw him as a misfit.
Jenny's hiding from her abusive, obsessed ex-husband. She's moved to a little town in TX where she's currently redecorating the local country club. Her neighbor is Hawk, the illegitimate son of one of one of the richest men in the area. He's half Apache and proud of his heritage, but he has a lot of anger toward his white father who never acknowledged him.
It was a decent read. I would've liked a little more written from Hawk's point of view, and a little less reiterating how beautiful and fragile and vulnerable and pretty, etc., he finds Jenny at every moment. I actually like that sort of thing in general, but I felt that the complement of actual chemistry came up a little short. They did have good chemistry, but the writing and story were pretty sparse.
Another story of Sheri Whitefeather I loved. I really Loved Hawk, the young illegitimate Apache son of a wealthy Man he was shunned his whole life by his father and the white community and Jenny the young wife who escaped a violent and abusing husband I found their story beautiful I didn't appréciate the intrusion of Daisy's story as I read this book as a standalone book It(s clear that it must be a beautiful story too
great job dealing with other important issues as domestic violence, the need to recognition, second chance, son-father relationship
Pretty average romance. Caucasian girl, native american hero. Most interesting aspect is that the two leads declare their love 2/3 of the way through the book which is not normal for romances and they still have issues to resolve in the last 1/3 of the book. The stalker exhusband adds no suspense at all and the subplot with Daisy is jarring and has nothing to do with the main story and adds nothing to it. It's just a heads up there's going to be another book.
