Not the best, but at least bad guys lose, good guys win.

This is not the best American Indian romance I have ever read, but it is not bad either. I like it that the Good guys win, bad guys get what's coming to them and the hero gets the girl and they live happily ever after. What can I say, I am old school. Karen Kay's novels are much better. I highly recommend Gray Hawk's Lady, Night Thunder's Bride and Angel and the Warrior.
strong Indian romance
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
Her parents and now her spouse are dead so a despondent Jessie Pilson heads to Tombstone, Arizona Territory to live with her cousin Reginald. Along the trek, outlaws attack her stage, but Sioux Chief Thunder Horse saves her life. He insures she makes it to town safely though he knows better than to escort her all the way. The arrogant Reginald demands the beautiful Jessie serve as his trophy hostess to impress his affluent friends. With seemingly no choices she accepts her role of being on display. Meanwhile she misses the kind Thunder Horse and soon sneaks out to be with him. When Reginald finds out how she humiliates him with a savage, he decides to incarcerate his relative, allowing her no freedom; her only hope to escape the gilded cage resides with Thunder Horse. Cassie Edwards always writes a strong Indian romance that her fans devour; her latest endeavor, SAVAGE ARROWS will receive a warm welcome from her readers. The story line is exciting and the lead couple likable courageous individuals. However, as with most of Ms. Edwards' warm nineteenth century tales, the lead trio come out of Edwards casting 101. The Native American male has no flaws as he is noble, nurturing and kind while the white male is selfish and egotistical to a Shakespearean tragic fault. Still few can provide as stirring a tale as Ms. Edward's consistently provides. Harriet Klausner
