She is Talon Rose, half-blood daughter of a Comanche chief and a white captive. As an outlaw who prides herself on never having killed, she rides the Arizona badlands with Mexican bandits, rustling livestock to sell south of the border, and eludes a "hang on sight" order. . . until a US Marshal captures her. Taken to an American army camp deep in the Huachuca Mountains and forced to scout with Apaches, she is soon caught in a triangle wrought with desire. John Nightwing, the Apache Chief of Scouts, proud and determined. Major Laine Taylor, Officer of Scouts and a genteel Southern gentleman, stubborn and equally determined. Talon's heart is captured between the two equally imposing men, but only one can gain her undying love and devotion. Torn between her heritage and her heart, Talon Rose battles the demons of the world as fiercely as the ones within herself. But her struggle is not the only one, two desperate suitors face off in a passionate battle that may cost one man not only his heart, but also his life.
