title: Stowaway Heart
author: Karr, Leona
description: From the banks of the mighty Colorado, Trish Winters watched the boats struggling against the rapids that had taken many strong men down. A frontierswoman of rare courage and an exquisite beauty hidden beneath her ragged calico dress, Trish vowed that one day she'd ride the raging river to find the father who'd left her behind. But her dreams turned to dust the night an act of shattering violence branded her a murderess...
  
  A fugitive, her only hope for survival was to stow away inside a stranger's boat. Yet when Trish gazed into Morgan Wallace's eyes, she saw pain and a passion that both challenged and aroused her. Now, with the past closing in behind, and uncharted waters and renegade Indians just ahead, Trish and Morgan had to fight the roaring rapids that could claim their lives or change them forever as, together, they plunged into the fathomless depths of a wild, sensuous love.
