A second chance that brought me to tears

This was my first Georgina Gentry novel, but almost needless to say it won't be my last. It takes you back to Fort Reno, Indian Territory in 1878 and tells the true story of how a group of northern Cheyenne went back to their native lands. A trek of 1500 miles largely mastered on foot and partly in bad weather. Interwowen in this true story is the tale of two fictive caracters, the drunken army scout Two Arrows who was once a celebrated Dog Soldier among his people and divorcee Glory Halstead. Both of them struggle to regain a place in society and proud, headstrong Glory finds herself taken captive by Two Arrows as the indians decides to leave for home. During the weeklong ordeal Glorys feelings towards Two Arrows slowly change from hate to admiration and finally love. The novel is very well written, the secondary characters, like captain David Krueger who loves Glory and wows to free her and kill Two Arrows no matter what are vividly described. The book had me turning pages and towards the end had me sobbing so hard I had to pause to blow my nose and dry the tears from my cheeks :o) WOW ! This book is a true keeper and a magnificent lovestory that also sheats light on the ordeal that the northern Cheyenne went through as they tried to return back home. I absolutely cherish this book and can highly recommend it.

THE MOST EXCITING ROMANCE BOOK I'VE EVER READ!

This is more than a heart- gripping romance. It is accurate to history, and so exciting you can not put it down!This author does an excellent job making you feel like part of the scene. She takes you on the 1500 mile trek that the Northern Cheyenne made in their fight for freedom. The characters are vivid, their struggle is heart- breaking and yet heroic. Many of "The People" in this story will become special to you. Each battle will have you glued to the pages. I found myself actually holding my breathe as I read at times!The romance is moving and totally consuming. The love between the characters is radiant. Also, you will enjoy some very steamy and daring love scenes.I hated to see this book end! I'll definitely be checking out more of this author's novels.

The best Native American romance I've read so far

I got the large print copy of this book and liked the cover of that book better.I liked the fact that the heroine was not your typical one. She was a dark-haired woman, over thirty, strong, independent, and had a job. Glory, aka Proud One, was the type of woman that makes reading these type of books worth it.Two Arrows was a good hero. Even though he's an alcholic whose been through a lot in his life. He and Glory gets a second chance through their love for each other.I have a strong interest in the Native American culture yet I don't read too many NA romance books because I don't like the way the NA's are betrayed. This book gave me insight to what Native Americans went through and a glimpse at their history. Two complaints that I have is that the author used the word "sword" to describe the male parts and I thought she could have found a better word than that. I also felt the author could have written an epilogue instead of rushing the ending. The love scenes were good and was more about love than trying to be erotic. On a whole, I would recommend this book, I think you will enjoy it.

Love and History

Cheyenne Song is by far one of Georgina's best. I could not put this book down. I read this book in two days and went back and read it again. This one and Cheyenne Splender They are pack with history and romance. I liked these two books so much that I am now collecting all of her books.

UNBELIEVABLE, ENCHANTING. A WONDERFUL READ!!

I've never read such a moving and emotionally thrilling novel in a long time. Glory and Two Arrows and their people have gone through hardships no one should ever endure. Emotionally equipped. Guaranteed to make you appreciate human freedmom. The romance and love between these two are moving and real. You can relate with each character in this book. I cried at the very end. I hope there is a sequel to this book.. A MUST READ!!
