A Native Princess Follows Her Heart (Daughters of the Lost Colony #3)

The Lost Colony of Roanoke: discover an alternate view of their fate alongside the life of Pocahontas.

One woman, taken captive and lost in the mists of time.

One girl, rising from the wilderness to become a legend.

One man whose longing for greatness will drive others to plot his undoing.

Another simply seeking a new life, only to lose those who are most dear.

Did the fate of the Lost Colony intersect with that of Jamestown and the new colony of Virginia? How much do truth and fiction entwine even within historical accounts?

About the Book

Born the daughter of a Powhatan chieftain and a woman of unknown origins, Mato’aka enjoys a carefree life. When strange men from across the eastern waters appear near her home, she regards them at first as a mere curiosity. Soon, though, she finds herself torn between fascination for one of their leaders and the opinions and ways of her people. . .then becomes a pawn in their delicate and dangerous game of politics. Drawn to a young Englishman, John Rolfe, who has lost a wife and baby daughter, she shares his griefs. . .and perhaps something more.

Could she have a future among the English of Jamestown, accepting their ways and even changing her name? Could her destiny be a part of the lasting legacy of the Lost Colony of Roanoke?

The colony at Roanoke disappeared into the shadows of history. But, what if at least one survived to leave a lasting legacy?
