A woman knows better than to give her heart easily ... But when you're in love, what the heart knows is the most important thing of all. Helen Ketterling is good at keeping secrets —- and the most precious one of all is her son. Years ago, Helen had left the Bad River Sioux Reservation —- the passionate nights she had spent in the arms of Reese Blue Sky were never meant to last. She had never told him about their child, she wasn't about to tie him down just when he needed his freedom most. Reese is astonished that his first love has returned to Bad River. But while desire he feels for her hasn't abated, he senses that she's holding something back. Although Reese is a man with secrets of his own, this proud man seeks the truth. And in this place where cherished traditions clash with a modern world, he's hoping to believe once again in what the heart knows.
