Savage in Silk — Donna Comeaux Zide

So Beautiful.

She gathers men around her with a green-eyed glance.

So Innocent.

Yet a capacity for passion smolders within her.

So strong-willed.

She will leave her family rather than marry a man she does not love.

So Loyal.

She will follow her man from San Francisco to England to the Crimea and surrender her body and soul to save him.

This is Mariah, born of a brief, violent encounter between a Blackfoot warrior and the ripe, blond daughter of the settler he had just murdered.

This is Mariah.
