The outlaw and the heiress have nothing in common except a desire for peace...and each other.
August 1870. The arrival of the Missouri, Kansas & Texas Railway at the border between Kansas and Indian Territory ignites another round of protests. Only, this time it's the Cherokee Nation standing in the way.
Railroad heiress Kate Parsons has spent a lifetime trying to win her father's respect. Her heart isn't in the marriage he demands for her, but she is eager to help him resolve a land dispute between his railroad and the local tribe. 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?
