Summer, 1800. There is no rain. Heat bakes the prairie. What little game survives on the trickles of water in the shrinking creeks is fiercely hunted not just by the Cheyenne, but by their enemies, the Pawnee.
In the midst of a buffalo hunt that becomes a battle when Pawnee warriors attack, a young Cheyenne brave, Grey Bear, discovers that his joy in killing outweighs his pride in bringing home meat for his hungry people. But the meditative Lone Hawk realizes for the first time that the Pawnee must be starving, just like the Cheyenne.
In the Cheyenne village, the beautiful Seeks Fire learns that the brave she idolizes is not the gentle soul she believes him to be. Her close friend, Touches the Wind, discovers her own bravery during an inferno that scorches the plains and destroys half the village.
The growing tension between Grey Bear and Lone Hawk will nearly destroy their people, but the love between a brave and a maiden will save them all.

It is a season of change for the Blackfeet tribe. The air is crisp with the scents of fall and the coming winter. The tribe's shaman, Bunch of Lodges, is locked in political battle with its chief, Sleeps Too Long. The shaman's sons, Raven's Cry and Night Thunder, are rivals for their father's affections and the right to succeed him as the tribe's spiritual leader.Complicating the issue--whether spirituality or a warrior's wisdom is the best way to guide the tribe--are the visions of White Calf, a young Blackfoot woman of great spiritual power. Her dreams show that the buffalo have wandered far from their usual grazing lands and that the Blackfeet must quickly mount a hunt or they will not have enough fresh meat to last the winter.
Worse than this, White Calf sees a future when the land of the Blackfeet is no longer theirs, when the white man has destroyed the buffalo and driven the Indians away from their ancestral lands. The tribe expects her to counsel them to follow either the shaman or the chief, but White Calf cannot clearly see whose path leads to a brighter future for her people.
When White Calf chooses to marry the shaman's son Raven's Cry rather than the chief, who also sought her hand, the smoldering political rivalry becomes an outright war. The tribe is literally split in two as the chief's faction heads for warmer southern lands while Bunch of Lodges leads his people on an ill-fated buffalo hunt.
Painfully aware that only unity will allow the tribe to survive the coming harsh winter their dreams have foretold, the shaman's sons and White Calf must battle through an unending blizzard to rejoin their people. Their only guide is a spirit wolf who seems both menace and protector.

Out of the Mists of TimeWhen she first came to the sacred tribal lands in the California wilderness, anthropologist Tory Kent paid little heed to the tales of a mystical warrior keeping watch there. But then a dark figure appeared through the mists before her -- and suddenly the unimaginable became reality.
Wherever -- whenever -- he had come from, the one called Loka was truly a man, and he awakened a need within Tory that could scarcely be denied. For he had returned, after a century in the shadows, to claim her -- the woman destiny had promised only to him.
Though entangled by undeniable passion, each walked a path seemingly impossible to weld together. For Tory was tied to the present. And Loka was bound by an age-old promise to protect his people's legacy . . . even at the cost of his own life.

Chera James wanted one thing from rugged Kade Morgan, permission to explore the acres of wilderness he owned. Her heritage was there, her family's roots, and maybe by walking that pristine land, she could still the restlessness that had long consumed her. But Kade made her restless in a way that both frightened and excited her. He was man, all man, fiercely independent and willing to sacrifice everything, maybe even his life, to protect his mountain. What she learned as they traveled toghether was that danger lurked everywhere. Some of that danger came from whoever was in the wilderness with them. Most of what caused her blood to race and her heart to beat like a wild drum came from Kade Morgan.
He wanted two things from her; the truth, and her body.

The Chumash tribe dwelled in harmony with the land, worshiping their gods and spirits. In the 1880s the Spanish drove them from their homes, forcibly converted them to Christianity, and made them slaves under priests and military commanders.A colonel in the Spanish army moves his wife and his daughter, Lucita, to the rough life of a Catholic mission in Alta California. On the journey to the mission, Lucita glimpses a half-naked Chumash warrior and is overwhelmed by the power of his gaze.
Black Wolf, once a captive of the priests, knows that the new garrison has come to hunt him down, for he gravely wounded one of the mission guards. He does not understand why he showed himself to the Spanish woman, but something about her draws him near.
Lucita's father demands that she marry a Spanish businessman. But at Black Wolf's side Lucita discovers that there is more than one kind of faith in the world, and that love can be a bridge uniting two very different hearts.
