Jill G. Hall, bestselling author of The Black Velvet Coat and The
Silver Shoes brings readers another dual tale of two vibrant women
from different eras trying to discover their true identities. Anne
McFarland, a modern-day, thirty-something San Francisco artist in
search of spiritual guidance, buys a corset in a Flagstaff resale
boutique-a purchase that results in her having to make a decision
that will change her life forever. One hundred and thirty-five
years earlier, in 1885, naive Sally Sue Sullivan, a young woman
from the Midwest, is kidnapped on a train by a handsome but
dangerous bank robber. Held prisoner on a homestead in Northern
Arizona's Wild West, Sally Sue discovers her own spunk and grit as
she plots her escape. Ultimately, both Anne and Sally Sue face
their fears and find the strength to journey down their designated
paths and learn the true meaning of love and family . . . with a
little push from the same green lace corset.
From acclaimed Western author Bill Brooks, the first two books of
his captivating "The Journey of Jim Glass" trilogy, now collected
in one volume for the first time RIDES A STRANGER Coffin Flats, New
Mexico, is a nothing town in the middle of nowhere-which suits Jim
Glass just fine. Looking for any job, he's courted by the local
brothel owner-because Jim is good with his fists as well as his
gun-but instead he is hired by Marshal Chalk Bronson. A hothead
named Johnny Waco is threatening to burn Coffin Flats down if his
runaway wife isn't returned to him. Now Glass has a plan that could
either make things right or pull the drifter into a world of
killers and heartbreak. A BULLET FOR BILLY Captain Gus Rodgers of
the Texas Rangers is dying-and before he goes, he needs Jim Glass's
help to free his grandson from a Mexican prison. Trouble is, the
Federale general holding him wants the head of the boy's brother,
Billy, who has already confessed to murdering the general's
daughter. Gus believes Billy deserves to die. The old ranger is
just worried he won't live long enough to do the deed-which is
where Jim Glass comes in.
Logan Cates knew the many ways the Arizona desert could kill a man. He had ridden the sunblasted dunes, tracked the Apache over barren lava beds, sheltered in the dry washes of this forbidding land. Above all, he knew a man needed water to survive. Cates rode to Papago Wells a few miles ahead of an Apache war party led by the vicious Churupati. There he met a dozen desert wanderers whom chance had led to the only water between Yuma and hell. There they came under siege by the Indians. And there they would make their stand--with little hope of living beyond the next day and only a hard man named Logan Cates to show them how to conquer their true enemy: fear.
Felix Dennis is an expert at proving people wrong. Starting as a
college dropout with no family money, he created a publishing
empire, founded "Maxim" magazine, made himself one of the richest
people in the UK, and had a blast in the process.
"How to Get Rich" is different from any other book on the subject
because Dennis isn't selling snake oil, investment tips, or
motivational claptrap. He merely wants to help people embrace
entrepreneurship, and to share lessons he learned the hard way. He
reveals, for example, why a regular paycheck is like crack cocaine;
why great ideas are vastly overrated; and why "ownership isn't the
important thing, it's the only thing."

The Boden clan thought their problems had ended with the death of a
dangerous enemy, but have they truly uncovered the real plot to
take their New Mexico ranch? Rancher Justin Boden is now in charge.
He is normally an unshakable and rugged man, but with his brother,
Cole, shot and in mortal danger, even a tough man faces doubts. And
it doesn't help that Angie DuPree, the assistant to the doctor
trying to save Cole, is as distracting a woman as Justin ever laid
eyes on. With her and the doc's timely skills, Cole looks to be on
the mend, and Justin and the rest of the Bodens can turn their
attention back to the dangers facing them. It's clear now that
everything that's occurred is part of a much bigger plot that could
date back to a decades-old secret. Can they uncover all the pieces
before danger closes in on them, or is the threat to the ranch even
bigger than any of the Bodens could imagine?
As a winter storm looms over Ambrose County in January of 1992, a
local woman's body is discovered and believed to be the latest
victim of a horrifying West Texas serial murderer known as The Red
Queen Killer. Christopher Cantwell (Halt and Catch Fire, The Blue
Flame, Iron Man) calls the series: "...the perfect kind of Texas
noir-timeless, sinister, funny, kind, and poignant." Collects THAT
TEXAS BLOOD #14-19
When Trace Riley finds the smoldering ruins of a small wagon train,
he recognizes the hand behind the attack as the same group who left
him as sole survivor years ago. Living off the wilderness since
then, he'd finally carved out a home and started a herd--while
serving as a self-appointed guardian of the trail, driving off
dangerous men. He'd hoped those days were over, but the latest
attack shows he was wrong. Deborah Harkness saved her younger
sister and two toddlers during the attack, and now finds herself at
the mercy of her rescuer. Trace offers the only shelter for miles
around, and agrees to take them in until she can safely continue.
His simple bachelor existence never anticipated kids and women in
the picture and their arrival is unsettling--yet enticing. Working
to survive the winter and finally bring justice to the trail, Trace
and Deborah find themselves drawn together--yet every day
approaches the moment she'll leave forever.
