Survivor's Heart - Native American Hearts, #5

Trapped and starving, Winter, 1846Jessie Spear is a member of the ill-fated Donner Party caught in the Sierra Mountains as snow threatens to bury the terrified survivors. There's no way out. No rescue. Or is there? As one of a small group of would-be rescuers, Daniel Bear risks his life fighting the elements. It doesn't matter that he's a wanted man, an outcast. Reaching the pioneers isn't enough.
Now Daniel has to make sure everyone, including Jessie and the orphan she's responsible for reach the distant valley. Long day after day and hard mile after mile, the two begin to trust each other with their secrets, fears, and dreams. To feel something that might become love. However, making it to Sutter's Fort brings no relief. Sutter refuses to sell land to an unmarried woman and Daniel's past has caught up to him.
