Clash of cultures . . .Like so many before her, schoolteacher Carolina Hammond came to South Dakota looking for a new life, but the reality of living in such a wild place soon had her rethinking her rash decision. Especially when the winds began to howl and the skies turned black . . . One minute, she was outside watching the skies and the next, she found herself plucked onto the back of a horse and out of the tornado's path to safety. But then she met her rescuer and realized she was anything but safe. This man was dangerous-to her reputation and to her heart. Jacob Black Hawk had never met a white woman like Carolina. She was strong, independent...and incredibly passionate. More importantly, she made him feel like a man-a man she wanted. Though they came from worlds society said could never meet, the desire blazing between them would not be denied. But a love like theirs could not remain a secret for long. When the truth came to light, would Jacob have the strength to let the woman he loved walk away? Or would he claim her as his own . . . even if it made her an outcast from her own people?
