"Best-selling and award-winning author Kathleen Eagle provides readers with an exciting ethnic romance . . . a classy reading experience." -- Harriet Klausner, AllReaders.com "You always can tell that a Kathleen Eagle book is going to be an enjoyable, intelligent read." -- The Romance Reader "Kathleen Eagle never fails to enthrall." - The Best Reviews She tracks him until he catches her . . . Some say Native American activist Kole Kills Crow is an outlaw; others say he's a hero. To reporter Heather Reardon, he's a must-have story. Her friend Savannah, who's married to Kole's half-brother, Clay, can vouch that Kole won't hurt Heather, even though a brush with the law has turned him into a fugitive. When Heather locates Kole in an isolated Minnesota cabin, she quickly learns that he's a loner with no interest in sharing his side of the story with the world. Yet neither Kole nor Heather can resist the attraction that complicates their relationship, along with Heather's persuasive arguments. Years ago Kole gave up a daughter for adoption because he couldn't raise her on the run. His daughter is now seven and deserves to know what kind of man her father really is. Kathleen Eagle expertly mingles passion, suspense and Native American political issues into an unforgettable story of love and healing. Kathleen Eagle retired from a seventeen-year teaching career on a North Dakota Indian reservation to become a full-time novelist. The Lakota Sioux heritage of her husband and their three children has inspired many of her stories. Among her honors, she has received a Career Achievement Award from Romantic Times, the Midwest Fiction Writer of the Year Award, and Romance Writers of America's prestigious RITA Award.

I was looking for a book to fit a “cultural” tag challenge and came across this one (which is tagged “multi-cultural”). The story focuses on Heather Riordan, a journalist on the trail of a story, and Kole Kills Crow, an escaped con living in the remote backwoods of northern Minnesota. I was intrigued by this premise and the promise of some exploration of issues of social justice in re the Native American population. What I got was a romance and not a very good one at that.

The original plot line of a person wrongly accused and hiding from not just the law, but from those who would want him dead (for whatever reason … I never did figure that out) captured my attention. The romantic tension between Heather (who, let’s just say it, was an idiot in her approach and fell too quickly for Kole’s charms) and her subject was entertaining for a while. But then the whole idea of a caravan to rally the Native tribes to protest Hollywood’s treatment of them just seemed completely bogus. Why on earth would Kole even attempt such a trek? That whole second half of the book just stretch credulity too far and the ending just left me feeling that I’d wasted my time reading it. ( )

Although Eagle is generally thought of as a romance writer her more recent books are edging into more of a mainstream fiction classification. This does have the man /woman relationship theme but the more important theme seems to be don't stereotype American Indians and quit taking away what they still have left of their 'treaty rights'.

The Anglo woman and the Lakota man fall into lust and then love and travel to Hollywood spearheading a mission to gain attention for the various Indian tribes and their causes. One of the causes is to ask for more accurate portrayals of Indians on the big screen since this is the way most people 'learn' about American Indians.

Kathleen Eagle is in a good position to write this kind of book as she is an Anglo married to a Lakota (aka Sioux).

This book is very boring and takes forever to read. I plugged through it but it wasn't worth it and I almost stopped numerous times. Don't waste your time on this one. ( )
