Reclaiming Clover - Lone Wind, #1 - E-book - ePub

He was her only hope for freedom, and she was his only path to happiness. When her protector abandoned her to go into the Army, leaving fourteen-year-old Clover Sweet Medicine to go through high school virtually unsupervised, she felt as though her spirit had died. She survived the loss, and now she was eighteen and graduating. However, grad night turned into a life-changing event, complete with an arrest and loss of her new adult status.
Suddenly, Clover needs a guardian, and the tribal council chooses the only person who cared enough to make her follow the rules, Jared Little Fox. Would he be willing to reassure the little girl inside and still want the woman outside? Jared Little Fox is a man of his word, and when he left to join the Army, it was to gain skills, a college degree and to earn money. He was going to fulfill his destiny with his tribe, and he was going to marry Clover Sweet Medicine.
He tried to explain all this to Clover before he left, but she'd turned a deaf ear. Now, he worried that four years might have been too long, with the changes in his girl. His Clover was a woman-child who was out of control, angry, scared, reckless, and desperate for love. She had lost all the security he had worked so hard to give her, ensuring she was happy, safe, and healthy since her early childhood abandonment. Now, instead of starting their adult lives together, the council wants to kick her off the reservation.
They charge him with the task of saving her once again, or else. He had claimed her once. He could do it again. Would his Sweet Medicine Woman be able to submit to a man she once loved but now proclaims to hate to find her forever?
