Awakening Fire

An exiled half-breed on a quest for revenge and redemption . . . Seven years in prison on Alcatraz Island have honed Christian Ladino's lust for revenge to a razor's edge. He lives to kill the soldier who murdered his grandmother, even as he longs to atone for the part he played in her betrayal and the destruction of her Apache way of life. A novice nun struggling with her past and her faith . . . Adela Fremont is a nurse and a novice Sister of Charity whose past holds her captive to her fear of the outside world -- a world that forced her to help her mother commit an unspeakable act in the name of survival. Together they must confront a mutual foe . . . When Adela's infant brother is kidnapped, she has no choice but to put her faith in a man whose nature represents her deepest fears, even as he awakens the fire of passion within her heart and rekindles the instinct for survival within her soul.Kelley Pounds lives in New Mexico.Pounds, Kelley is the author of 'Awakening Fire' with ISBN 9781929613397 and ISBN 1929613393.
