East Meets West in this frontier Western~

Rafe McKuen, the son of an Osage chief’s daughter and a successful American fur trader turned planter, has one foot in each world. As a child, he often visited his mother’s tribal camp near St. Louis. At his father’s Louisiana plantation, he was a beloved son, but “invisible” to New Orleans society which ignores his existence. Now he is a man—where will he spend his life--in which world?

Miss Eve Holcombe is an Eastern beauty with influential relatives. Her father’s unexpected announcement that they are moving West startles and worries Eve. Why, she asks. But her father has a secret and a plan he won’t reveal. He insists she trust him. And if she stays in the East, her ambitious aunt will try to marry her off to her aunt’s advantage.

Both Rafe and Eve are on a journey, a Journey to Respect. But such journeys are rarely uncomplicated or without dangers. And falling in love is the most dangerous of all.
