The Raging Hearts — Patricia Hagan

HIS COURAGE CONQUERED HER WORLD,
BUT HER LOVE CAPTURED HIS HEART!

Kitty Wright's once grand ancestral plantation stands abandoned, ruined. Now, her father and fiance slain, her southern life in tatters, the two men who ravaged her heritage turn their hunger to her beauty.

Corey McRae, Yankee carpetbagger, rescues Kitty from the lusts of a vengeful mob, only to entrap her within his own violent passions. Jerome Danton, privateer of land and women, gathers into his cruel web of wealth and desire every shred of beauty in the fallen Confederacy -- with a special eye to its most spirited woman.

Across a land savaged by a conquering army, Kitty flees -- possessed by a woman's indomitable strength to guard her most precious gifts: the child of her body and the love of a man ... a man named Travis Coltrane, a victorious soldier who knows that a man's greatest field of honor is a woman's heart.
