Book Description

Publication Date: May 1, 2002 | Series: Zebra Historical Romance

THEY WERE MISFITS WHO HAD TO LEARN TO SURVIVE.

A BARGAIN MADE IN HASTE

Desperate but determined, lovely Brandy answers an advertisement for a mail order bride, hoping to build a new life out West for herself and the five orphans she’s taken under her wing. She needs a guide to reach Fort Laramie by wagon train and turns to Thunder, a Cheyenne scout, for help. When he curtly refuses, Brandy is undaunted. And when he’s jailed after a gunfight she makes a devil’s bargain: he gets his freedom and she gets a guide.

A DESTINY SEALED BY A KISS

Thunder has learned the hard way that prejudice runs deep for half-breeds. Now, his only desire is to live among the Cheyenne people. He doesn’t want the temptation beautiful Brandy offers, and the wild passion that explodes between them only hardens his resolve to avoid what he cannot have: another man’s soon-to-be wife. But when they reach Fort Laramie, can he truly walk away from Brandy and the rag tag family he has come to love?

Brandy barely remembered the time she was little and her mother had left her at the door of the parsonage with only her trunk. When she began a young lady though, Father Brown died and Brandy became the one in charge of the five younger orphans. There was no money, no one coming to replace Father Brown, and soon the parsonage would be closed. Brandy had to do something! She had promised Father Brown to take care of the other five. When she spotted an ad from Sam Owens for wife, she never hesitated to write him in hope of being chosen. She was. The only thing stopping them was the need of a man to take charge of their wagon while with Ward's wagon train until they reached Owens at Fort Laramie. Thunder was the one to fill that role.

The White world called him Thomas Bradley. His mother was staying with her husband among the Cheyenne. But he went to her parents in Boston for an education as his mother wished. He was headed home now to the people who knew him as Rolling Thunder. Taking care of Brandy and her five charges was the last thing he wanted to do. But he had no choice in the matter.

Brandy and Thunder became attracted to each other. However, each knew they would soon be going their separate ways. Neither knew how could possibly make it without the other. But they also knew they had no choice.

***** Now here is a great story! Brenda Jernigan created characters that I fell in love with quickly. I could not seem to read fast enough! The pages flew by! Everything was so well written and flowed so smoothly! Don't start this one until you are sure you will have plenty of time to read. You won't want to put it down. AWESOME! Highly recommended! *****

Dance on the Wind ended much too soon. This story really touches your heart and makes you care about the characters. I loved every minute of the book and it will be a book that I'll read over and over again.
