Editorial Review:
In this historical romance set in turn-of-the-century Chicago, Diana Palmer proves that when it comes to survival--and love--life in the big city can be just as precarious and suspenseful as in the Western wilderness. With only his long hair and bowie knife as reminders of his Sioux heritage, Matt Davis now runs his own detective agency and passes as white. He's determined to resist the attractions of fiercely independent, newly arrived Tess Meredith, whom he knew years ago as a sharp shootin', hard ridin' girl on the Montana plains. But Tess, who's loved Matt forever, refuses to believe that their racial differences, and society's prejudices, must keep them apart. And when a murder investigation forces them to keep close company--and threatens deadly consequences--they learn just how fiercely they're willing to fight for what they want. Palmer's lively style and passionate love scenes lighten up some story elements that might otherwise be rather dark. --Ellen Edwards
Diana Palmer's sizzling historical novels are full of soul-stirring emotion, rich storytelling, and breathtaking desire. Now the winner of a Romantic Times Career Achievement Award carries on her bestselling tradition with THE SAVAGE HEART, a fiery story of a woman with big dreams and a man who has nothing left to believe in--except her. . . .Tess Meredith and Raven Following shared freedom and friendship on the wild Montana plains. But brutal hardships that plagued the Sioux forced Raven to abandon his people, his heritage--and Tess. In Chicago, he forged a new life as a new man with a new name--until Tess arrived, bringing with her the past he'd tried to deny. But Tess was a fighter, and she would harness all the courage and spirit of a way of life gone forever to wage her greatest battle . . . for love.

Rating:  - A Must Read for Palmer Fans Along with Magnolia and Cattleman's Choice!!!
This is one of the novels that hooked me on Diana Palmer. Her voice in this novel more closely resembles her writing voice as Susan Kyle. Unfortunately,Diana Palmer (a.k.a.) Susan Kyle seems to have two types of heroines: the virgin-martyr, wall-flower/door-mat/bloodless/I-don't-wear- white-before-Easter-or-after-Labor Day-primness, and the 100% red-blooded, all-woman,gutsy, sensual, independent, intelligent, you-and-whose-army type of woman. I guess you can tell which one I prefer. As a reader, ... Read More
Rating: - Can Not be Forgotten
This is by far the best book that Diana has ever written.
I have read it many times and will read it many many more
times.
Rating:  - There are many better reads out there...
Unfortunately, the characters never "came alive" for me. Try "Silken Savage" by Catherine Hart or any of the "Savage" series by Cassie Edwards. After reading those, this novel seemed like a cheap imitation.
Rating: - The greatest romance
I know this sounds cliched, but it is truly the most moving, beautiful, emotional and breathtaking book I have read. I picked the book out simply because I liked the cover, and when I started reading, I couldn't put it down. What I love is the story of the interracial marriage. How two people from two worlds could come together as one. Simply beautiful.
Rating: - A wonderfully inventive book that kept me going.
I could not put this book down for anything. It was funny how Diana Palmer made her characters act and behave. The twist in plots kept me interested until the end. I loved this book.
