The acclaimed romance author weaves Native American folklore into a contemporary story of hope, courage, and the power of love.
Angela Prescott has pulled up stakes and moved halfway across the country, seeking refuge from the man who made her life a nightmare. Starting over in a new city, she's determined to keep to herself, until she meets twelve-year-old Tommy T.
Street-smart Tommy knows how to keep secrets. He's told no one of the mysterious recluse living in an underground hideaway, whose face he's never seen. A gifted comic book artist with no place to live, Tommy needs someone to believe in, and in this phantom stranger he finds the comic book superhero of his dreams.
Jesse Brown Wolf's past has driven him underground in many ways. By day, he is a handsome repairman who fixes the plumbing in Angela's rooms. By night he lives in the shadows, acting with reckless bravery to make the streets safer for kids . . . and whispering into Angela's sleeping ear promises of comfort, security, and heart's ease.
