The Snow Maiden's Mountie (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781393212768)

A knock on the head leaves the Mountie without a memory. And the tagalong woman needs him as the blizzard blows in. Will he wake in time?

A Royal Canadian Mountie, Michel Martel, on the way back from the Wisconsin Northwoods to Canada, gets a nasty surprise--a tagalong woman and a blow to the head. When he wakes, his memory has vanished. With a blizzard upon them and no shelter, he has no time for amnesia. He orders the uninvited woman to gather firewood quickly, or they will die.

Lisette Dupont, a woman on a mission--a misguided one--to find some liveliness in the drab frontier life. Now her knight in fur-flocked armor falls asleep in the snow, and she can't wake him. If he doesn't wake, what will she do?

This is just the first of the northern frontier winter challenges that Michel and Lisette must conquer. But the biggest challenge is Lisette herself. Can she grow into a woman and leave girlhood behind? If the Chippewa medicine man, called Proud, has anything to say about it--she will--and the nuns--and Michel. Challenge after challenge starts the process of maturing her to the woman Lisette was born to be. It will all work out--if she survives the process.
