I love to read Cassie Edwards, I think she is a great writer. This book gives great details, and a story line that I enjoyed. Read it at night without any destractions, so you can follow the sub-genre in it. I love the main character, Troy/Red Feather. He appealed to me, and my heart went out to him. If you go to cassieedwards.com, you will notice that there is a Red Feather charity for the Indian lands, and welfare. Angela Dawn was just as innocent and sweet as all the main women characters by this popular author. The villians are very detailed too. I love this book! Ms. Edwards wrote another one that qualifies for a best-seller!! Thank you for not disappointing this fan.

In 1821 Jamestown, Louisiana, Chitamacha Princess Soft Flower now known as Jewel Ratcliffe gives birth to a son Larry. Though she loves her half-breed newborn, her ten month old other son Troy is her soul. The older boy known as Red Feather in her heart comes from her Indian marriage making him a full blood while the new infant comes from her abduction by the Louisiana planter Jon who married her under Christian law.

Twenty-five years later, Larry seems to have only one goal in life to defeat his older sibling at everything though Troy always wins. This time it is cards and Troy wins everything including Larry's mail order bride Angela Dawn. When Red Feather and Soft Flower return to their people accompanied by Angela, Jon goes ballistic vowing vengeance and an acrimonious Larry sees the opportunity to defeat his hated sibling.

With over thirty "Savage" novels, award winning Cassie Edwards is one of the all time leaders of Indian romances. Her latest tale, SAVAGE DESTINY, is a chip off the old block, which will please the author's appreciative readers. Though typical of Ms. Edwards' standardized story line of good vs. evil in an Indian or old west setting, nevertheless the plot engages the audience. Several strong characters besides the lead couple make for a fine time for sub-genre fans that don't mind the paint by numbers plot, albeit Ms. Edwards created the numbering.

I DIDN'T REALLY LIKE THIS BOOK COMPARED TO CASSIE EDWARDS OTHER BOOKS. I THOUGHT THE BOOK WAS BORING AND DRAGGED ALONG.

This book is boring and the plotline ridiculous. The characters are not well thought out. It is amazing to me that people read this stuff. The side of a cereal box is more interesting.

This is an unimaginative work of cover filler. The characters are one-dimensional and completely uninteresting. Only the younger brother, Larry, has anything approaching character development. Yet another piece of uninspiring fiction on a subject that Ms. Edwards has already overdone.

I cannot fathom that such a distinguised author would think that anyone would appreciate this drab plot. A ten year old could write a more imaginative story. The cover art was the best thing about the book. Don't bother.
