Description
A resilient Slave
A fierce Warrior
A love of a lifetime
Julia, a mixed race slave, escapes from a Louisiana plantation and is captured by the Comanche. She is later traded to a Sioux warrior, Trades with Horses, who is fascinated by her beauty and spirit.
Although she is drawn to the ruthless warrior, she will never be another man’s property. She will risk everything including her life for freedom.
With his people starving, Trades with Horses travels to Ft. Laramie to take what has been promised to the Sioux in a treaty—a treaty broken by the white man.
The mission goes horribly wrong.
Thinking her lover dead and unwelcomed in his village, Julia seeks solitude in the Canadian wilderness but finds her freedom bittersweet.
Advance Praise
Julia and Sunkawakan Iyopeya's story is real, truthful, honest, and sensual. The author clearly knows her stuff - Lakota Moon Rising is incredibly well-researched without resorting to any info dumps or unnecessary telling.
But it's the love story that drew me in and made me stay up way too late reading this non-traditional and yet still very sensual romance. It's like an amazing historical fiction on A&E combined with a very contemporary understanding of a woman's fight for justice and her place in a land that doesn't value her or her contributions
