Two souls bound by the frontier, tested by distance, and drawn into two very different worlds.
From Wall Street Journal and Amazon bestselling author Donna Foley Mabry comes the sweeping second installment in The Manhattan Stories-a heart-wrenching, beautifully crafted historical novel of loyalty, temptation, and enduring love.
Hot-headed and wild-haired, nine-year-old Emma's life changes forever the day twelve-year-old Akecheta saves her from disaster. Growing up together on the wild frontier surrounding Manhattan, Kansas, Akecheta teaches Emma how to survive the dangers of nature at Pillsbury Crossing, while she teaches him how to heal from the secrets of his past.
As the years pass, their deep bond blossoms into something more. But when life pulls them in opposite directions-Emma pursuing her degree at Kansas State University and Akecheta attending university in Manhattan, New York-their commitment is put to the ultimate test. While Emma fights for her place in a changing West, Akecheta is thrust into the dazzling world of big-city high society, high-stakes Bowery poker games, and a seductive, wealthy blonde who threatens to tear him away from his roots forever.
