Sand Creek Serenade

"Uhlarik's research is sound and her characters are intriguing in]...this well-constructed story..." Publishers Weekly

Dr. Sadie Hoppner is no stranger to adversity. She's fought to be taken seriously since childhood, when her father began training her in the healing arts. Finding acceptance and respect proves especially difficult at Fort Lyon, where she's come to practice medicine under her brother's watchful eye.

Cheyenne brave Five Kills wouldn't knowingly jeopardize the peace treaty recently negotiated between his people and the Army. But a chance encounter with the female doctor ignites memories of his upbringing among the whites. Too intrigued to stay away, tension erupts with the soldiers, and Five Kills is injured.

As he recuperates under the tender care of the pretty healer, an unlikely bond forms. However, their fledgling love is put to the test when each realizes that a much greater danger awaits--a danger they are wholly unable to stop, and one which neither may survive.
