Savage Horizons

By Rosanne Bittner

Blue Hawk was born into the Cheyenne culture of his parents, but when he is adopted by a white trapper and renamed Caleb Sax it is difficult for him to adjust to the white man’s ways. He encounters prejudice everywhere he goes and struggles to remember his true blood despite his upbringing. Caleb’s adoptive parents raise him alongside their daughter, Sarah, and love him like their own. As Caleb and Sarah grow up together, their secret passion for one another becomes undeniable. When tragedy strikes and Caleb is left for dead, Sarah, carrying Caleb’s baby, is taken away and forced to marry a brutal man she does not love. Though Caleb and Sarah believe the other to be dead, their diverging paths prove that their love and longing for each other can never die.

Reviews for Savage Horizons

[strawberryga · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Now this is the kind of book I was looking for! It tells the story of an Indian born Blue Hawk, orphaned then adopted by white men and called Caleb Sax. This book spans his life and weaves together an addictive tale of how a human-being can love and desire and have strength to overcome.
I relished learning more about Indians, but would have loved to learn even more about the differences in Cherokee and other tribes.
Most importantly, the story reads well, character development is strong and I can't wait to read the other 2 books.
Unfortunately too many good people died back when the country was first formed. I thank-God we don't have to worry about being attacked and killed like the settlers and Indians did.
