Wild Innocence by Candace McCarthy #MustRead #Historical

Native American Historical Romance



A Pampered Belle…

Devastated by her fiancĂ©'s betrayal, young Rachel Dempsey fled a life of privilege in Baltimore's high society for a hard-scrabble existence at her father's mission on the rugged shores of Lake Superior. There she tended the wounded brought to the mission's infirmary and vowed no man would ever touch her heart again—certainly not Black Hawk, the disturbingly sensual Ojibwa warrior she was tenderly nursing back to health.

A Fearless Brave…

Black Hawk had never allowed a woman to distract him from the dark dream of vengeance he had harbored against his hated Sioux enemy since boyhood. But soon the warmth in Rachel's eyes began melting the ice that shrouded his soul, and when danger threatened the mission, the fierce warrior spirited away the beautiful white angel to the safety of his own village. There Rachel discovered a new peace among the gentle Ojibwa, while the tenderness in Black Hawk's fiery touch ignited a sudden passion—convincing them both that they shared a love as bold and timeless as the untamed plains of the wild Northwest.

What readers are saying:

"…touched my heart and transported me back through time to an early period in our country's growth. This is a book that I will gladly place on my "to read again" shelf."

"I did not want it to end! I especially liked that she based her Native American romance somewhere other than the plains. I had begun to wonder if there were any writers out there that knew about the Woodland's Indians."

"…a wonderful escape from the normal, everyday chaos."

New Release! Fireheart by Candace McCarthy #NativeAmerican #Romance

Who Can Resist A Native American Hero?



A Woman Bound By Her Future

Raised by the Lenni Lenape tribe, Joanna Neville returns to them after spending six years in England under the strict hand of her uncle. The carefree young girl known to her tribe as "Autumn Wind" is now an heiress with the bearing of an English blue-blood. But her passion remains untamed, as she is about to discover when she is reunited with a man from her past.

A Brave Chosen To Lead

Fireheart is no longer the love-struck youth he once was when he knew Autumn Wind. Upon the village sachem's death, he will be the new leader. Yet beneath Fireheart's grim weight of responsibility lies a need that can be filled by only one woman—a woman whose prim and proper facade masks a spirit as wild as the wind… and a desire waiting to be unleashed.

What readers are saying:

"I think this book was one of [McCarthy's] best, and I will add "Fireheart" to my list of keepers."

"A hero to make your knees melt!"

"…a terrific read. I read it in one sitting. I loved the Indian background and the hero was memorable. Anyone who likes Native American romances would enjoy FIREHEART."

Firehawk's Bride by Judith French #Historical #Romance

Amazon Editors Recommended Read!



In 17th century England, divided by race and station, theirs is a forbidden passion. He is a magnificent Cherokee prince—held captive in an alien land—the chosen one destined to save his people from the white invasion. She is a gently-reared squire's daughter, promised in marriage to a man she can never respect. But from the moment Fire Hawk and Kate's gazes lock, and soul calls to soul, the two are bound, caught in a torrent of danger that sweeps them from the castled halls of Kent, across the Atlantic, to the wild splendor of the Great Smoky Mountains. There in the savage wilderness the star-crossed lovers risk everything in a single cast in the game of destiny.

Dark Night of the Moon by Keta Diablo

Look what we found! A Kindle Romance Novel for under $4!



Dark Night of the Moon, a paranormal wolf shifter, is the sequel to Holding on to Heaven.

Creed Gatlin flees to Arizona intent on eradicating the haunting memories of his brother’s wife. Brand Gatlin, presumed dead, resurfaces after a long absence and with his re-emergence, the destinies of those he loves is altered forever
In a land rife with war and danger, Sage must travel to the village of her husband’s People. There, she is reunited with Crooked Back, the ancient healer. On the long trek back to Full Circle, devious plots are underfoot and peril lurks around every corner for Sage, Lauren and Peter Pa.

Dark Night of the Moon will take you on an unforgettable journey of war, violence, overwhelming grief, and finally, love. 

Review:

Keta Diablo has managed to wow me again with Dark Night of the Moon and the continued journey and struggle her characters Lauren, Creed, and Sage face with their strength and love. I couldn't put the book down because of my eagerness's to learn what happened to Brand and whether he would make his way back to Lauren. Deep inside, I hoped he would not find his way back to her so that Creed and Lauren could burst beyond their walls of stubbornness and succumb to their strong love and desire. Yet, I found myself brushing away tears as I experienced the sadness they felt when tragedy returned to dance upon their
lives, creating even more sorrow and sadness. This was an on-the-edge-of-your-seat-bite-your-nails story. The only disappointment I have in this one of Keta Diablo's sequels is that the ending for Sage and her deceased husband didn't follow the path I had eagerly anticipated.'

I recommend this book to anyone with an interest in history, romance, and an open mind for Native-American mythology with a splash of paranormal.
