After Angel and Steve met, Angel must learn to fend for herself and Steve must learn to get past his guilt over his daughter's death.
ANGEL's TOUCH
For nine lonely, bitter years Steve Thunderhorse had cut himself off from feeling. He was certain he never could, never WANTED to put behind him the unspeakable tragedy that had forever altered the course of his life. But when the elusive Native American first looked into the bluest eyes this side of heaven, his heart was a war drum, his blood a river of fire. Angel Mercer's vulnerability touched him in ways he hadn't felt in years, and for a moment the warrior believed one pure woman could create miracles and tumble the walls he'd built around his heart.
Perhaps the road to redemption COULD be forged... with Angel leading the way.
