April 01, 2009: In 1755 Iroquois Confederacy Indian Black Eagle is hired as a scout and guide to a small group near Lake George during the French and Indian War. He is attracted to one of the party Marissa Jameson who heads to a friend's home for shelter. She finds her guide's tenderness quite refreshing as she has not seen the same from her race. Both know their desire is taboo, but neither can prevent it from growing.
On their trek north Marissa is the victim of a series of accidents that Black Eagle believes is deliberate by someone wanting her dead. He realizes his constant vigil is not enough to keep her safe and he persuades her to run away with him. As they run to the safety of his tribe, her avaricious uncle who is also her guardian will not stop at achieving his goal.BLACK EAGLE is an engaging Warriors of the Iroquois romance that fans of Cassie Edwards will enjoy though Gen Bailey's novel contains much more historical information than the "Savage" tales. The lead couple is an interesting pairing of forbidden love, but the focus of the story line is the Iroquois Confederacy struggling to survive as an independent nation while the French and English war over who controls Upstate New York, New England and Canada.Harriet Klausner
