The Heart of the Mountain

Blue Ridge Mountains, 1836.With the threat of the Cherokee removal looming, two hearts stand against the storm.Adohi, a young woman once caught between two worlds, and Tayané, a proud Cherokee leader, have fought to protect their people through hunger, exile, and loss. Now, as soldiers close in and the threat of the Trail of Tears looms, they lead a hidden band deep into the mountains ??? where faith, love, and the land itself become their only refuge.Told with lyrical prose and deep reverence for Cherokee history, The Heart of the Mountain is a sweeping tale of love, endurance, and the unbroken bond between people and place. It continues the legacy begun in The Captive's Heart and The Heart of Adohi, bringing the story full circle ??? from captivity, to courage, to renewal.
