"...Faith battles cynicism, cynicism battles faith and two souls find freedom at long last."

 

Christian Ladino lives for the death of one man, yet his survival depends on the skills of one woman. . . .

When Adela Fremont, a novice Sister of Charity, rescues the dying half-breed, she isn’t prepared for the violent memories his presence evokes. Ladino’s savage nature represents everything Adela fears, yet her attraction to him grows, threatening her sheltered life and testing her vows.

And though Ladino is afraid this stubborn woman’s gentle influence will destroy his quest for retribution, he feels compelled to awaken the fire of passion within her heart and rekindle the instinct for survival within her soul.
