"Beverly Scott has written a compelling romance nicely meshed with mystery and adventure. Interwoven throughout are bits of history involving the Apache nation and the government's efforts to force them onto a reservation. The dialogue is fitting of the locale and time frame with characterization masterfully portrayed. The story is filled with intrigue, romance, mystery, and suspense with nonstop action. This is one mesmerizing book that will have readers quickly turning pages, anxious to read what happens next. Ms. Scott's style is unique and refreshing; she is an extremely talented author who belongs on the bestseller list."
