Miss Bryna Cassidy's journey to the New World holds anything but promise. Orphaned during the ocean crossing, Bryna is forced to travel alone through unsettled lands to reach her uncle's homestead in New Eden, Pennsylvania. She arrives to discover her relatives have been slain in an Indian uprising, and the only man civilized enough to offer help is the very land baron who seized her uncle's farm before the embers of the massacre's fires had died ... Dominick Crown has carved a palatial estate out of this savage land; he is ready to spawn his American dynasty. But for this he must wed, a difficult task for an English gentleman who avoids all contact with high society, fearing someone will recognize his handsome face and, worse, reveal his haunting past. The well-bred Bryna is the perfect answer —- until he discovers her temper is as fiery as her radiant hair, and she brazenly uses him to achieve her ends. As war with the natives looms dangerously close, Bryna and Dominick are swept into a whirlwind of adventure —- and an ever-intensifying passion they never dreamed possible.

It has been five years since a brutal Indian raid claimed Brighid Cassidy's family. But with the resilience and generosity of a young girl, Brighid has grown accustomed to the beautifully simple life of the tribe that took her hostage, then loved her as one of their own. Now a peace treaty is forcing tier to return to civilization, and a society that she is sure will never accept tier. She wants to despise dashing, blond Philip Crown, the distinguished English peer who escorts her back to Pennsylvania, yet even this desire is undermined by his warn smile and gentle manner.... When the Young Earl Philip Crown promised to fulfill a family obligation by showing the long-lost captive home, the last thing he expected was to fall in love with her penetrating aquamarine eyes.

But there is one thing Philip knows for certain: he must convince the spirited Brighid that happiness can be found beyond the wild life she has known...in the arms of an English nobleman.

The adopted half-Lenape son of a marquess, privy to one of the finest fortunes in all England, was handsome, intelligent —- yet discontent to his very soul. Returning to the America lie left as a child, he was on a journey to find his past, and a place where he really belonged. But from her first glimpse of him seated on his horse Lenape Traveler, Brianna wanted him to belong to her —- and she set her heart on the capture and taming of Daniel Crown. She hoped to prove to him that she was a determined woman, not an impulsive girl, and to join him in his search for his people. She didn't know her father had warned Daniel of his headstrong daughter's amorous intentions, or that an enemy was arriving from England to forever divide Daniel's dreams and her desire. Yet she knew when she gazed into Daniel's night-dark eyes, that love is a promise a woman will fight anyone, or anything to keep ...
