Feathered Tide

Disowned by his father, Whit Longstreth leaves home to join the 1812 Georgetown Kentucky militia in a frontier war against fearsome Shawnee warriors. Instead of achieving glory and fame, Whit is in danger of losing his scalp as his quest engulfs him in the bloodshed and terror of the River Raisin Massacre and the defense of Fort Meigs. At his side is veteran frontiersman Coonrod Smythe, the father of a spitfire half-blood daughter with designs on Whit. If he somehow survives the fighting, can Whit hold Jessie Smythe at bay long enough to choose between two beautiful women he believes he loves—Deborah Hartwell, the socially prominent belle of Georgetown and Angelique Ravoir, the ravishing beauty he meets on a secret mission to British-held Detroit? But then, will feisty Jesse live with his choice or treat him to a bullet?
