"Extremely well written, with two stirring and poignant lead characters who do much to add to the Janis Reams Hudson legend. This Native American romance will be read in one sitting and will leave the audience wanting even more.” —AFFAIRE DE COEUR When Jessica's half-brother is hauled off in chains, bound for prison with the Apaches in Florida, she is left shattered. Still, while her heart is broken, her will remains as strong as ever, and she immediately sets off after him, vowing to free him from unjust captivity. But there is one obstacle she did not expect. Captain Blake Renard is determined to foil Jessica's rescue attempt at any cost. But despite his hatred for the tribe to which she she shows such loyalty, a blaze of desire burns deep, slowly melting his heart's fury. Will the captain be able to carry out his mission to keep Jessica from hers, or will his fiery contempt be snuffed out by love?

The accomplishments and enduring influence of renowned anthropologist Dell Hymes are showcased in these essays by leading practitioners in the field. Hymes (1927–2009) is arguably best known for his pioneering work in ethnopoetics, a studied approach to Native verbal art that elucidates cultural significance and aesthetic form. As these essays amply demonstrate, nearly six decades later ethnopoetics and Hymes's focus on narrative inequality and voice provide a still valuable critical lens for current research in anthropology and folklore. Through ethnopoetics, so much can be understood in diverse cultural settings and situations: gleaning the voices of individual Koryak storytellers and aesthetic sensibilities from century-old wax cylinder recordings; understanding the similarities and differences between Apache life stories told 58 years apart; how Navajo punning and an expressive device illuminate the work of a Navajo poet; decolonizing Western Mono and Yokuts stories by bringing to the surface the performances behind the texts written down by scholars long ago; and keenly appreciating the potency of language revitalization projects among First Nations communities in the Yukon and northwestern California. Fascinating and topical, these essays not only honor a legacy but also point the way forward.
