"Two Stones has lived most of his life as an outsider, shifting between two different worlds-the orderly village of his Salish family and wild mining towns. When he arrives in Virginia City a week before Christmas, the last thing he expects is to be summoned to the bedside of a good friend, whose dying request is that Two Stones marry his daughter, Two Stones knows she'll never accept him as a true husband, but she needs his protection. She'll be safe in the Salish village with his parents while he continues trading-alone. After escaping the controlling clutches of her deceased husband's family, all Heidi wants is to rebuild her life her way. But when she reaches the Montana Territory to reunite with her father, she doesn't know what's worse-arriving mere days before his death or hearing his dying wish that she marry a Salish brave he trusts. Yet when she barely escapes an assault, it's clear she's not safe alone in Virginia City. She'll have to make the best of things as the wife of a native."
