"Lover? I have no lover I am chaste. There's not a man alive who can entice me."
Among the Apsaroke people on the northern plains, Moon Hawk is playing a dangerous game. Her heart is set on Winter Man, but why would a man with so many lovers want to take a wife?
Challenging his virility captures Winter Man's interest, but in a village of skin tipis where every word is overheard their escalating game of tease and spar soon spirals beyond control, threatening Moon Hawk and her family with ridicule and shame. Is this Winter Man's intention? Or are they both dancing to another's tune?
From buffalo hunting to horse raiding, "Beneath The Shining Mountains" is a story of honor among rival warrior societies, and one woman's determination to wed the man of her dreams.
'...Beneath the Shining Mountains should be listed with the Classics. The story mesmerized me, with its rich detail and strong emotions...' Celia Yeary, Western Romance author.
