5.0 out of 5 stars Wow! 8 Feb 2003
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Anna Wiley has 12 orphaned children in her care and for whom she must find 'good Christian' homes. Whilst heading West, by train, a war party of cheyenne warriors attack. She and the children are spared because earlier Anna had saved War Cloud's younger brother who had been abducted by the 'whites'.

War cloud reluctantly takes charge of her and the orphans because his younger brother will not allow him to kill them! This is where their journey starts. There is also a curse involved but I won't say anymore otherwise it will spoil the story!

When I started reading the book, especially about the massacre that took place on the train, I thought how on earth are these two going to come together? Here we have a bunch of ruthless warriors who would not think twice about killing women and children. How will Anna Wiley overcome the barriers that separate them? How does she conquer his hate for the 'whites'?

This story totally amazed me. The author lets you see and feel how, maybe, a warrior would act and feel; his mannerisms and gestures; his speach. The way he, at first, ignores Anna showing her his back and only grunting when she speaks to him! Even though he speaks perfectly good english he makes out, at first, that he does not understand her!

Karen Kay makes you understand the plight of the indians, how they suffered at the hands of the'whites' in that era. A story certainly told from the heart. Its very hard to describe how well the book is written. Sometimes I find it easier to review a book that is not very good or lacking in depth/concept. You know exactly what you are going to say but with this book there a so many good points that its difficult to put down on paper.

To me this is a great book with characters that have depth and meaning. Thoroughly enjoyable. I found that I didn't want to put the book down and certainly didn't want the story to end; now to me that is a sign of an excellent read! Well done Karen Kay!

4.0 out of 5 stars An Indian warrior fights his attraction for a white woman. 29 July 2001
By Affaire de Coeur - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Anna Wiley and another woman are bringing twelve children west to find homes. The search goes tragically awry when the train is attacked by Indians. A young Indian boy in chains is on this train. When his bullying captors shoot at the boy for fun, Anna hides him under her skirts and saves him. This action saves her and the children's lives, for the leader of the Indian war party is this boy's brother. War Cloud is initially blinded by his hatred of all whites. But soon he can't deny that Anna is a rare woman, and he is immensely drawn to her. He fights his passion, not just because Anna is white. His family has been under a curse for centuries. Women who marry into the family either leave... or die. As time goes on, he fears that should he take Anna to wife, he will be the instrument of her destruction. Even if you don't usually enjoy Indian romances, if you enjoy good writing, try this novel. You won't be sorry.

5.0 out of 5 stars Exciting Native American Romance 4 July 2001
By Harriet Klausner - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
In 1869 on the journey west to place the orphans in good homes in Hays, Kansas, New Yorker Mr. Bilsworth dies in Kansas City. Before passing away, the dedicated Bilsworth obtains a death bed pledge from Anna Wiley to finish their trek to find good homes for the children. After a period to insure no one else caught Mr. Bilsworth illness, Anna and the children board a train that includes a prisoner, the younger brother to the dangerous War Cloud. When the Indian eludes his jailers, the very tall Anna hides him under her long dress.

Her kind action proves fruitful when War Cloud attacks the wagon train she is now on and agrees to escort Anna and the children to a white community. As they journey together, Anna begins to learn the way of the Cheyenne and War Cloud starts to admire the bravery of the woman who he now believes will end the family curse. Still, he hesitates to tell her that he loves her, not just because she is white, but because he fears that if he is wrong about her the curse will devour his beloved.

WAR CLOUD'S PASSION is a passionate Native American historical romance that centers on adhering to one's values so love can overcome any obstacles. The story line starts slowly as Karen Kay paints the background dilemmas affecting the intrepid Anna. However, once War Cloud enters the tale, the plot explodes into a fast-paced, passionate Americana romance that will provide much gratification to sub-genre readers.

This is an absolutely brilliant story. It has depth, meaning and the characters are great. This story was written from the heart. Karen Kay is a great story teller.

I thought it was thoroughly enjoyable and one of the best books I have read in a long time. If you love Indian/American historical romances, this is the one! BUY IT.
