Summary: A typical read!
Review: I thought this book was a little on the boring side. The events were preditable just like the end. There was really no exciting parts. The only conflict between Zach and Abby was that she couldn't be accepted in the white society.

Summary: Native American Western Romance
Review: The dashing offcer Zach Mercer is held captive by a group of Cheyenne Indians. There is no way of escape for him as he is tied up and humiliated by his captors. He can only wait for the end of the day when his date with death arrives. Fortunately for Zach, Tears Like Rain, a young Cheyenne woman feels pity for him and asks the chief Cheyenne, White Feather, to release Zach so that he may become her slave. White Feather agrees and Zach becomes a slave to Tears Like Rain.

As Zach spends more time with Tears Like Rain, he notices that she is in fact white just like himself and not Cheyenne. Her skin is white, her natural hair colour is sable but covered with black dye and her eyes are grey. He discovers that she and her brother Wind Rider were adopted by the Cheyenne group when they were children after their parents had been slaughtered by Crow Indians.

The Cheyenne are a dwindling race and it is proposed to White Feather that his group of people move to a reserve a Sand Creek. White Feather agrees with the army to move his people to Sand Creek in return for living in peace. Zach does not wish for Tears Like Rain who he now knows as Abby Larson to move to Sand Creek. He wishes to introduce her back to the White world where he believes that she belongs. White Feather agrees with Zach even though Abby wishes to remain with the people she grew up with. Zach takes Abby away to the nearest white settlement. Zach finds himself falling for the headstrong white Cheyenne and Abby does her utmost to rebuff him but she too finds herself falling for the handsome officer.

I found this book to be an average romance. Zach was a galant hero but I found Abby/Tears Like Rain a rather annoying character. I just couldn't warm to her. There are a couple of steamy sex scenes but I couldn't really find the love story hidden under the lust story. Read it if you really enjoy native American Western romances but if like me you're not a big fan, give it a miss.

Summary: First book in the 'Trails West Trilogy'...
Review: This was the first book in the Trails West trilogy including, WIND RIDER, & SIERRA. Its the romantic tale of a woman named Tears Like Rain by the Cheyenne who is white and was found along with her white brother Wind Rider, wandering aimlessly around the wreckage of their dead parents wagons after a brutal Crow Indian attack.

Tears Like Rain never thinks of returning to the white world of her birth until a calvary officer with blonde hair and stunning blue eyes is captured and tortured in her camp. She is somehow captivated by his beauty and kindness shining in his eyes. She must help him. She takes him as her slave and wonders what she will do with him now!

Zach Mercer never dreamed he would be taken prisoner by a wild group of Indians within his first few months of being out west! On his first ride out to the praires investigating attacks on settlers no less! Was this to be his fate? To die in the savage hands of blood thristy Cheyenne warriors? Then he would gladly die with pride and not be a coward. Just as he resigns himself to die, a beautiful maiden with long dark hair and strange gray eyes watches him from a distance with intrest. Was she white? What in the world was she doing in this camp of savages?

Zach is furthermore in awe when it seems as if the beautiful maiden has made for his release, but finds himself her slave instead! A slave of a woman!? Soon Zach shows Tears Like Rain that he is slave to no one, not even a gorgeous woman who pretends she is Cheyenne. His curiosity also discovers she IS white and so is her powerful brother Wind Rider! When more questions arise about how she ended up in the camp, Zach finds himself falling in love with the strange woman and vows to take her away.

In a time when the settlers are demanding more and more land from the government, the once proud Cheyenne and Sioux are having to face starvation and death if they don't comply. Tears Like Rain realizes she is a woman named Abby Larson from times gone by, but she refuses to leave her people to save herself from certain death by fighting alongside the Cheyenne and Sioux against the American government, but she has no choice.

Abby soon finds herself in a strange world of faces she doesn't recognize and people who are the same skin color but sneer at her as if she were some animal. She longs for her own People once again, but her love for Zach blossoms out of control and she must choose. What of her brother? What of her missing little sister Sierra? Sierra was never found when the wagons were attacked, was she dead? Abby is determined to solve all her problems, but she doesn't have time. Time is running out for the Cheyenne.

This story is jampacked with action and history of the Sand Creek Massacre and the downfall of the Cheyenne. As always Connie Mason delivers a solid story of courage and love that surpases all colors and boundries. The love between Abby and Zach is touching and sometimes heartbreaking. This is a sure keeper and a great start to the trilogy, followed by her brother's story WIND RIDER and their missing sister's story SIERRA.
