A poverty-stricken pioneer woman looking for a new beginning, her Native American protector, and their quest for happily-ever-after on his wild, untamed homeland... Desperate to escape a life of poverty, Rose Payne enlists as a ship clerk and sails to the New World. On the way, a deadly conspiracy threatens her hope of joining the first permanent British colony in the Americas.
Not knowing who she can trust among her countrymen, the fiery-haired pioneer turns to their only Native passenger for help - a tall, stoic shipmate heading home after a diplomatic tour in London. Though most of the nobility turn up their noses at Chief Manteo's broken English and foreign ways, Rose quickly finds in him a fiercely protective friend, ally, and admirer. As the web of danger closes around them, she is forced to confront the biggest risk of all - the one this dark and handsome lord of the woods poses to her heart!
