Savage Forest (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798993251011)

On the raw edges of the Northeastern American frontier, survival is a daily battle-and love is the most dangerous risk of all.

When Jenna, a young Swedish settler, is torn from the fragile safety of her homestead and thrust into captivity over a tragic mistake, she finds herself caught between two worlds: the life she once knew and the unfamiliar ways of the Minsi, Clan of the Wolves. What begins as pure terror slowly transforms into resilience as she learns their ways, their language, and their reverence for the forest, its medicine, and the spirits that dwell within. Yet the greatest challenge she faces is not hardship or the threat of war-it is her own conflicted heart.

Running Wolf, a fierce and proud warrior, is bound by duty to his people and by promise to another woman. But Jenna's spirit-fiery and indomitable-awakens something in him he cannot continue to ignore. Temper and passion entwine the couple until Running Wolf is stretched to the breaking point.

As alliances shift and betrayals surface, Jenna is forced to confront her deepest fears: of losing her freedom, her people, and the man she has come to love. Caught in the crosscurrents of loyalty and desire, she must decide whether love can truly cross the divide between two very different worlds-or whether self-sacrifice is the only path forward.

Rich in historical detail and alive with suspense, Savage Forest is a sweeping tale of captivity and courage, forbidden love, and the unbreakable strength of the human spirit. Perfect for fans of Native American historical romance, frontier survival stories, and enemies-to-lovers tropes, this novel transports readers to a time when every choice could mean life, death, or the chance at an all-consuming love worth dying for.
