The Sons of Running Horse Cathleen Leclere

Strong men need strong women to fulfill their destinies. To Running Horse, the Cheyenne war chief, life is one battle after another. He fights the Absaroka and Johnson County cattle ranchers before engaging in the ultimate battle to win the heart of a woman. Elina Lavaux is that woman. She's a strong pioneer who succeeds in her dream to breed horses on her own ranch, in a time when women couldn't even hold land without a man's name on the deed. Twenty years later, the old tribal ways are gone, but the spirit of the warrior remains strong in their sons. The young men must overcome prejudice and personal demons to find love, thus fulfilling the prophecy of the Black Stallion.
