description: The Arizona Territory, 1865
  
  Despite the army's cruel treatment, the prisoner, known only as MacKenzie, remained proud and aloof, yet April Manning had seen the flash of fire in his dark, impenetrable eyes. Somehow she knew the half-breed scout was innocent of the brutal crimes he was charged with.
  
  Forced to kidnap April and her small son, MacKenzie repeatedly tried to return them to safety. But it seemed that fate was against him. The time had come to choose between their freedom and his own. For his enemies were right behind them, and the young widow and her son had become more precious to him than life itself.
