A gripping historical western romance brimming with "love, laughter, action, adventure, turmoil, heartache, and the list goes on" (The Romance Reviews).

In 1784 New Mexico, Marco Mondragón, his wife Paloma, and their three small children, are living happily at the Double Cross ranch on the edge of Comanche country. Not far from their homestead, cautious diplomacy between the tribe and the colonists is underway to end the indian raids. But their happy life suddenly turns upside down when Paloma and another woman are kidnapped. But by who?

Torn between his duty to join other landowners in their quest for peace with the Comanche and his desire to search for his wife, Mondragón will have to unmask his true enemies amongst his own people if he is to save the woman he loves—in this epic of "classic Western fiction" (Historical Novel Society).
