What if a simple chance meeting changed your whole life? Jake
Starr, the biggest movie star in the world, crashes into Rebecca,
the young blonde secretary at Movie Star Studios. What if your idol
said these things to you? "I want to explore your deepest fantasies
with you. I want to hear you moan in ecstasy when I'm inside of
you. I want to explore every inch of your beautiful body. Please
stay." Would Jake be the one to completely change Rebecca's life?
His obsessive need for control in every aspect of his life could
destroy him. Will Rebecca be able to save him? Controlled by the
Studio, will Jake be able to break free to be with his one true
love or will circumstances beyond his control and a fake wife with
her own agenda destroy his career, happiness and the only truly
important thing in his life - his love for Rebecca? 1930s
Hollywood. Where everything is not as it seems. Just a little
warning or an FYI if you like. I don't - do - gentle. - Jake Starr
Little Brooks lives, hunts, and rides with the Plains Indians.
While with them, he witnesses first hand a massacre of a pioneer
woman and her two children. This act spurns hatred and bigotry
between the communities of the White Settlers and Native Americans
that would be felt for over 100 years. Can Little Brooks lay to
rest this social strife with the truth he has witnessed?
When John Stafford, a young man from a wealthy Philadelphia family,
graduates from college in the 1860s, he ventures to the lawless
Northwest to satisfy his basic urge to put himself to the test in
meeting the challenges of a trying environment. Adventure is what
he seeks, and adventure is what he gets. Stafford experiences many
turbulent twists and turns in his life. He marries, Little Dove, a
beautiful Indian woman of Hidatsa descent. He is accepted into her
tribe following his ingenious strategy to defeat his wife's
wrathful Blackfeet suitor. And Stafford accepts a request by
President Abraham Lincoln to form a highly proficient clandestine
fighting force to help the Indians defend themselves against the
widespread tyranny. His skilled force consists of several relatives
and close friends-black as well as white, male and female, along
with a number of Native Americans. Their exploits involve
confrontations with river pirates, whisky peddlers, a tragic
massacre by unauthorized military action an Indian reprisal, and a
marauding gang of cutthroats.
Will Bucklett walked away from the brutality of Marysville prison,
determined to put the atrocities of the senseless war forever in
the past. His one desire was to return home to a loving family and
with brighter expectations. But little did he realize Fate had a
very different idea for his future. As he and his younger brother
bury their mother, they received demoralizing information. Their
father, Salas Bucklett, was being held captive by John Bullard, of
the late Union Army. Who having lost his commission as colonel,
turned into a barbaric terrorist. Major Salas Bucklett of the
Confederacy had previously outwitted Colonel John Bullard of the
Union Army out of a shipment of gold bullion for the South. Bullard
holds Bucklett personally responsible for his disgraceful downfall.
He is accompanied by Evie Plummer, his malicious mistress, whose
morals are lower than a snakes belly and has a heart colder than
the snowcapped Rocky Mountains; she's matched only by the
coldblooded killer and militant deserter, Elkhart, Bullard's
ferocious and vicious second-in-command. Will, his brother, Dain,
and their half-breed friend, Booger Red, trailed the merciless
cutthroats through the Indian Nation, across the high plains of
north Texas, and into the mountain backwoods of Colorado. During
their search, they are ambushed by remnants of Bullard's
desperados, fought off a war party of Cheyenne warrior at a
Purgatory way station; thereby rescuing the lovely Trin Houghton.
Seemingly, fighting off misfortune at every turn in their search to
find and free their father. Persistence and the six-guns can be
convincing tools, but without the courage and tenacity of the
beautiful Juanita, and the resourcefulness of a whorehouse madam
the outcome of Bucklett's Pursuit could have been devastating.
