Whispered Promise: Her Desire For The Half-Breed... / Colleen French

In this tale of bold desire, adventure and learning to trust the one you love, Leah pledges herself to the half-breed no one trusts and returns to him years later to track her kidnapped son and they find their lost love rekindled and burning once again.

Raised on a tidewater plantation and educated to be a gentleman, half-breed Harrison DeNay captures the heart of sixteen-year-old Leah Tanner with his loyalty, gentle words and tender passion. One day deep in the forest they pledge their eternal love with a secret whispered promise.

FORCED APART BY HER FATHER

Cruel fate forces Leah and Harrison apart and Leah’s father forces her to marry someone else, a man she can never love.

GETTING HER SON BACK

Unhappy years pass for Leah until one day things get much worse. English soldiers and their Indian allies kidnap her eight-year-old son William. With the help of Indian trackers, Leah desperately turns to Harrison, who is living among his Shawnee tribe, a stranger who betrays her with his steely unforgiving eyes. Even so, Leah feels a sudden pang. She remembers her whispered promise to this hardened man. Together forever.

Can it be? Does the bond that once entwined their souls still stand? Will it bring them together once more on their journey to rescue William? Leah and Harrison penetrate the enemy lines in disguise, trying to stay one step ahead of the enemy’s Indian allies for William’s sake. With everything at stake, Leah risks it all and faces the deadly danger with the only man she has ever truly loved by her side.
