Customer Reviews

Cassie Edwards best so far.

I only have three American Indian romance novels written by this author and so far this one is the best one I have read. My advice to the critics, if you don't like her books, then don't read them, better yet write your own novels. That's what I'm doing.

refreshing Cassie Edwards entry

In 1840 eighteen year old Wylena Shrock left Illinois following the deaths of her parents to live with her brother Father Joshua at his Arizona Territory missionary near the Mexican border. Josh's twin brother Jeb is also there, but he hides because the Mexican army led by General Zamora and the Apache tribe led by Chief Falcon Moon believe he is the notorious murdering "Scalp Hunter". Falcon Moon is also angry at Jeb because he secretly was having a tryst with his sister Bright Star, who the Mexicans abducted to use as a pawn to draw him to them. While her brothers sleep, Wylena steps outside only to be abducted by Zamora. At the Mexican camp she befriends Bright Star who is treated as if she is animal by Zamora. Falcon Moon and his warriors rescue Bright Star, but he also abducts Zamora's cruel white woman who failed to help his seriously injured sister. On the top of the mountain where the Indian camp is located, Bright Star remains unconscious from her ordeal. Wylena swears she is Father Josh's sister and was abducted by Zamora for the same purpose that Bright Star was. He wants to believe her because he is attracted to her. As they fall in love, they must deal with the Mexicans, the disloyalty of his chosen heir as chief and her brothers. FALCON MOON is a refreshing Cassie Edwards entry due more so by the support cast rather than the lead couple as the audience obtains a close look at the Apache lifestyle on the Mexican border circa 1840. Wylena and Falcon Moon are typical of Ms. Edward's books as they are a noble and caring pairing. Although there is no direct confrontation between good and evil, Ms. Edward's fans will relish her latest Indian romance. Harriet Klausner
