After a spiritual visitation from the White Wolf, Nina and Wolf are compelled to spend the summer exploring the locations of their past lives together as Lakota Sioux. Many of the memories are pleasant and filled with family and love. However, the recollections of battles, massacres, and government boarding schools are not. Emotions that resurface with the memories of these horrific events are almost too much to endure.
Meanwhile, their sons, Laine and Takota, remain behind to manage the family bison ranch in Red Lodge, Montana. Then, unexpectedly, Takota's wife, Clementine, must return to Wisconsin to deal with a family emergency. The strength of Tak and Clem's love is tested when ex-lovers reappear and rekindle fiery feelings of the past. Can Lakota values and culture show them the path to forgiveness and the way forward, or will temptation and desire extinguish the flame of their love?
