Bound for Arizona and the Tumbleweed ranch as the mail order bride of its owner, Sparrow Mackenzie couldn't quite believe her good fortune.
But Mitch Tumbleweed himself proved a surprise. He certainly wasn't the lonely, young man eager for a wife that she had been led to expect. And although Sparrow had longed for romance and adventure in her new life, she hadn't bargained on falling passionately in love with her husband's arrogant, teasing smile. And she never expected to be held captive by the Camancheros, to take refuge in a Mexican bordello or to feel so wildly jealous of her husband's beautiful Indian mistress.
Danger and heartbreak, it seemed were her destiny as she fled in despair from Tumbleweed to a final, passionate confrontation with Mitch amid the blazing fires of the Apache villages.
