Where The Rain Is Made
by K. Celeste Bryan
Francesca DuVall is a rebellious beauty who, along with her brother, Marsh, gets kidnapped by the Cheyenne Dog Soldiers. Since the kidnapping, Cesca spends every waking moment planning an escape for her brother but she never counted on falling in love with the man whose silver eyes cause her to tremble with unrestrained passion.
There is something she doesn’t know about this man. Ethan Gray is a curator at a famous museum, most of the time. At other times, he’s Meko, a savage warrior plunged into the past to help his beloved People. Meko is a brutal, savage leader of the Dog Soldiers who has been in many battles as he fights to save his People. Now that he’s met Cesca, he wants to win her heart forever.
From the desolate plains of Colorado and the harsh life of a Cheyenne Dog Soldier to the good-natured life of a Native American Museum curator, their love was fueled by passion and ignited by destiny.Where the Rain is Made is my first novel by K. Celeste Bryan, but it definitely won’t be my last. Bryan spins a wonderful love story between two characters that may, at first, seem like opposites but are truly meant for one another.
I love reading historical romances and have read my share of Native American themes, but have never heard of the Dog Soldiers before. Now that I have finished this novel, I wish there was more with them in it. Cesca and Meko are wonderfully, complex characters that I had fun getting to know as the novel progressed. After the first couple of chapters, I couldn’t sleep until I found out what happened next, especially since Meko isn’t from the same time period as Cesca.
I won’t give any spoilers away but I really loved how things ended and I hope one day K. Celeste decides to write a sequel to this book. There is much she could expand on. K. Celeste delivered an awe-inspiring novel that made me appreciate the Native Americans and their way of life.
This book is a definite keeper that everyone should read because they will be hooked immediately!
4.5 Stars – Manic Readers, Phoebe Jordan
