Jon Hazard Black, Hazard or "Black Cougar": Absarokee Indian Chief/~26 years/attorney-land/mine owner playboy/$$$/black hair/black eyes.

After obtaining a law degree from Harvard, Jon Hazard Black, Hazard aka "Black Cougar", a young, handsome, charismatic and commanding Absarokee chief, returns to Montana to protect his land and his people.

Thanks to his education and exposure to the "white man's ways" combined with his sinfully good looks and bedroom skills he moves effortlessly between the life of the ultra-rich high society and his own tribe. Women want him, man respect and fear him and his own people are looking to him to lead and carry a legacy.

Blaze Braddock: Caucasian/19 years/heiress/$$$$/red hair/blue eyes/virgin.

Enter Blaze Braddock, a head-strong heiress and daddy's girl. Their first encounter is a disaster and they don't much care for each other. When there is a conflict regarding Hazard's land and instead of resolving the matter for her father Blaze ends up being held hostage by Hazard.

Annoyance is replaced by lust that turns in to a mesmerizing all-consuming love. But the year is 1865 and they have much to overcome; the times are tumultuous and there's a fortune at stake (Blaze's net worth was $22 million, which by today's standard would make her a billionaire 33 times over). Add to that the many, many people who want to keep them apart, anything from scorned ex-lovers, admirers, fortune hunters to their own families.

Will they find their way through and back to each other?

Spellbinding story-telling! A larger-than-life and unforgettable hero! Intriguing and suspenseful plot! A love story of epic proportions! Classic Susan Johnson!

*In her earlier books Susan Johnson, a master historian has been known for her abundance of facts and history. She has reference and note section providing further details. I have always found it both interesting and educational. But you don't have to read in order to enjoy their story.

"She writhed helplessly against his steely grip, her frantic movement only furthering the progress of his softly caressing tongue. In moments, Hazard forced a shuddering moan from her and quivering she gasped in shallow rapturous sighs."
