Untamed

Josie's father dumped her at a local brothel during a rage. After only a few days as their laundress, a Cheyenne warrior takes her and an African prostitute to a mountain cabin as a gift to Daniel. After spending her entire life slaving for over a dozen brothers and a step-father, Josie considered herself free! That was, until Long Belly "kidnapped" her to care for Daniel Two-Skins McCord who had recently broken a leg. She was determined to be neither prostitute nor slave for them. Daniel's only thought was on how to care for the tribe. He was head of the Tongue River Agency. The government was not sending the needed supplies. Daniel had hopes of raising cattle for the tribe, even though he had NO idea how to do it. His broken leg was a hindrance he did not need. Now he had two women trapped in the cabin with him and Long Belly, thanks to the winter weather. ***Oh, this one is priceless! I chuckled through a lot of it, especially once Bang and Two Moons (the two mischievous twins) entered the picture. Other times I found myself shaking my head in wonder of Josie. I urge readers not to miss this book! A book to be treasured over and over!***
