  • "Set against the vastness of Montana's Big Sky country in the years after the Civil War, and against the epic tragedy of the Cheyenne (the People of the Morning Star)."@en
  • "As a brash youth, Joel Ryan joins the Confederate Army. But when he returns home to Kentucky, he finds himself a stranger there. His wanderings lead him to the hills of Montana, and a mission that will change him forever. When Joel first lays eyes on Mourning Dove, he realizes his hide would be better served by walking away. But his conscience doesn't take kindly to abandoning the helpless Cheyenne woman to her brutal captors. He never dreams that rescuing her will bring him the greatest love."
  • "Former Confederate soldier Joel Ryan meets and loves two very different women--Hemene, the sister of a Cheyenne chief, and Sarah, a mail-order bride--in a story of romance, adventure, and vengeance set in nineteenth-century Montana."
