Though it was only a short time ago that Amir came to the Eihon family to wed her young husband, already she feels like a member of the family. But her happiness with Karluk means little to her family over the mountains. They wish to recall Amir and marry her to another family as part of a land negotiation. Amir's father is willing to go to great lengths to bring her back, but Karluk's love for his bride is a force to be reckoned with. Will Amir and Karluk's happiness be shattered, or will their love prevail?
