Tuft Of Thistledown

Described as a 'heartrending' and 'incredible' story by Regina McLemore, author of Cherokee Clay and Patricia Morris author of Days of our lives.

Two lives-once bound by a love that couldn't be had-find themselves caught up in the western expansion of America. Horse Song, a Cherokee woman of mixed blood, escaped from the Trail of Tears, lives hidden with her family in the remote refuge of Oak Long Leaf. John Lucas Jr., a wealthy landowner and political insider, presses ever closer-ruthless in ambition, yet haunted by what he once was.

When their worlds collide, the will to survive spirals forth the question; in the undying consequences of choice, can the soul ever return from what it didn't want to become?
