description: TWO WORLDS, ONE HEART
  
  Fleeing scandal and tragedy, Hope Caldwell brings her medical skills to the proud native people of the Pennsylvania frontier. But danger surrounds the gentle healer in this savage, inhospitable land. And she trembles with fear and desire in the presence of a magnificent brave whose golden eyes burn with passion's hungry fire.
  
  A warrior dedicated to driving the unwanted white settlers from Indian lands, Firewalker aches to possess the beautiful, midnight-haired maiden who stands defiantly before him. For she is his destiny, foretold in a sacred vision. And though scorn and peril threaten their union, he will defend to the death his cherished prize -- to know the ecstasy of a bold and breathtaking love that the spirits decreed and his noble heart demands.
