Redbird
The heiress and the outlaw have nothing in common except a desire for peace...and each other.August 1870 -- Railroad heiress Kate Parsons has spent a lifetime trying to win her father's respect.

But on the eve of negotiations, she is plunged into danger when she is abducted at knifepoint.
Jake Colston, also known as Wa-ya, the Wolf, has the blood of warriors running through his veins. However, he isn’t eager to wage a war he knows his people can’t win. Rather than fight the smoking dragon, he devises a clever strategy to stop it. Until a courageous woman with fiery red hair stumbles onto his scheme. Is the captive he nicknames Redbird the incarnation of a long-ago vision? Or does she portend the end of his dreams?
