Native Hearts — RaeLynn Blue

Lee Stone didn't want a heart-shaped box of boring chocolates for Valentine's Day. She didn't want a trip to Vegas. She'd been there and done that. What she longed for was one Valentine's Day that didn't invite tragedy and chaos. The last three years with her boyfriend, Tank Begaye, had been host to a blizzard, a fire, and a heart attack. For once, she wanted to spend the day nestled in her lover's arms.



Tank Begaye had weathered the long-distance relationship with Lee for years. Now, he meant to make her a permanent fixture in his life -- as his wife. Avoiding the cliché Valentine Day's proposals at restaurants and public landmarks, Tank knew exactly where to go -- his family's Hogan, deep in the heart of the Navajo Reservation. Surrounded by his ancestors' spirits, he would ask Lee to join their family's circle.
