Wild Splendor

by Cassie Edwards

TEMPTED A hothouse flower in the parched, rugged desert of the Arizona Territory, beautiful and headstrong Leonida Branson isn't about to let her youth dry up in a duty-bound marriage to the pompous General Porter. And when she first sees Sage, the fierce Navaho chieftan that her fiance has sworn to crush, she knows that the comforts of civilization are no match for the adventurous passion the copper-skinned brave awakens in her. CAPTIVATED Darkly handsome, Sage's flashing black eyes smolder with forbidden heat each time he catches sight of Leonida's porcelain beauty. But nothing has ever prepared this hardened warrior for the feelings that suddenly rage within him ... and for his intense desire to sweep this exquisite woman into his powerful embrace, to teach her the ancient ways of his people ... and the timeless ways of love.
