Deep As the Rivers

DEEP AS A FRONTIER SKY

With the Mississippi beckoning, Colonel Samuel Shelby is eager for his mission: making peace with the fierce Osage Indians. He is certain the task will prove easier than making peace with his faithless wife. The dangerous wilderness seems a welcome refuge ... until he meets beautiful, headstrong Olivia St. Etienne...

DEEP AS THE PASSIONS THAT RULE THEM

When the fire-haired Olivia discovers that her guardian plans to sell her as a mistress to the darkly handsome colonel whom she dreamed would marry her, the heartsick girl flees, only to be cast unwillingly into his arms.

Together, Olivia and Samuel must survive the savage wilderness, engaged in a battle of wills which both vow to win, but which both are fated to lose. From ballrooms along the Potomac to Osage lodges on the Missouri, from rowdy St. Louis down the mighty Mississippi to elegant New Orleans, the lovers discover a passion as wild, as turbulent, and as deep as the rivers.
