Christina Rainwater is a half Cherokee Native American gifted with the abilities of a healer passed down to her from her Cherokee grandmother. However the tribe has difficulty accepting a woman healer and one that isn't full Native American even more so. Still with the assistance of her grandmother Nana, she is determined to win the tribe over and proceeds to help where ever she can. Overcoming their prejudices by doing a superb job using her natural healing talents and the knowledge learned from her grandmother.

Since reaching the age of young womanhood a beautiful Falcon has become her companion, joining her from the wilds on his own, friendly enough to allow her to "pet" him. In this carnation, as in her previous lives, Christina doesn't realize the Falcon is Falcon Hunter her true mate. An evil shaman cast a spell on the couple as revenge because Falcon Hunter killed the shaman's brother, protecting his wife, Running Doe from rape. The spell condemned Falcon Hunter to live out his seven reincarnations as a Falcon, only able to reveal himself to his true mate as a man when she is in danger. Knowing this is Christina's last reincarnation and his last chance to regain her love he has to find a way to reveal himself to her. She must recognize him and admit her love for him, only then can the spell be broken.

Shonna Brannon has written a touching, erotic, and spell binding story of the customs of Native American Indians. Dealing with passively dispersing the negative prejudices against gender and mixed cultures, she clearly shows how positive beliefs and attitudes work effectively against old attitudes. Shonna delves into their beliefs of past lives and the real possibilities of strong shamans and curses that influence lives into the future. Her story is one of a touching romance and love that exists between not only two people but two souls, surviving not only one life time, but many. This story touched my heart and her plot is well thought out and delivered.
