โฆ Synopsis
Two star-crossed lovers follow their hearts from Scandinavia to Civil War-era America in a sweeping tale from the bestselling author of Flames of Desire.
Kristin Arnesdatter has hair like the summer sun. Her eyes reflect the clear blue Norwegian skies. Her beauty is a blessing and a curse. She is to be Gustav Rolfson's reluctant bride, despite her heart being forever bound to Eric Starbane.
Eric has fled his homeland with a price on his head and vengeance in his heart. He will make his way in America, an alien land torn apart by war. He will win honor there, and prepare for greater battles, all for the sake of reclaiming his beloved's heart.
Will Kristin and Eric find each other in a vast and divided country? Or are they destined to remain forever apart? Wild Wind Westward is the searing saga of a love whose flames will not be extinguished.
