Leota, woman of the people, was a Native American of the Blackfoot tribe. She was a spiritual leader for her people. During one of her visions she saw great disaster for her people. Napi the Great Spirit told her she had to warn her people of the impending danger of the white man. But also in her vision she saw a man that intrigued her.
Marsh Pepperhorn was a lawyer in Minneapolis out west visiting his twin brother’s family. But he arrives too late to save his brother and sister-in-law from a mountain man attack. To his relief his sixteen year old nephew survived the attack. As he and his nephew try and track down the men who killed their family, he comes across an American Indian woman in need of help.
Going against everything Marsh was raised to believe about Indians he rescues Leota and helps her return to her people, but at great cost to them both. Once in her village he finds that not everything he believed about Indians was the truth. Marsh and Leota discover that they have an undeniable attraction for each other. But how can their bond bridge an entire race of people? Will their love for each other be enough to see them through the trials they must face to help her people survive the white mans treaty?
Wind Song is such a well written historical Romance. It does not take the reader long to get pulled in to this story and feel like they really are in the old west of 1855. Rita Karnopp does a wonderful job portraying the Native American struggle in white society. You really end up feeling for the plight of Leota’s people, and her own plight of trying to get her people to understand the danger they are truly in. I really enjoyed this book, and have no trouble recommending it to other readers.
