When Karl Schmidt immigrated from Germany, he was searching for the American dream, but he never dreamed he’d fall in love.
The small, quaint northwest US town where he decided to settle was close to a large city, but the city was always too much for Karl. He loved the peaceful country and the wide-open spaces. He also loved animals and owned a veterinary practice which serviced the entire area.
One day a beautiful young woman shows up at his clinic with a very peculiar beast that is injured, and she insists Karl must help it. As he works on the animal Karl is shocked to find himself mesmerized with the young woman.
Karl learns that this woman, Dakota Maize, is indigenous and although he has never met a first nations person before, he is enamoured and falls fast in love with her – a love at first sight. He discovers the feelings are mutual.
But this lovely woman is from a place so different than the small town that Karl resides in. Her lifestyle and dreams are far from anything he can really understand. Their meeting leads to a quick romance, and they try to make this work even though they are from such different worlds. But Dakota longs for her family and her lifestyle on the reservation. She misses it dearly but cannot leave Karl, whom she also deeply loves. Distraught and caught in between two worlds, Dakota struggles with her choices.
This instalove romance is the Prequel to the series “Who Do You Love?” where lovers from different backgrounds find their way to one another and need to understand how to make it work – in the name of love.
