This novel plunges the reader into the last agonizing years of the
Civil War. Cattle from the Florida plains are needed to save a
desperate South from starvation. But quicksand and snake-filled
swamps, Yankee raiders, and vicious outlaws block the trails
between Florida and the rest of the Confederacy. Men like Tree
Hooker, tough as alligator hide and quick with gun, knife, or whip,
reckon with Union forces and renegades when they take on the job of
driving the herds.

Leah is a single female who headed west to become a pioneer. She
encounters a lot more than she ever could have imagine. She falls
for a rustic mountain man that takes her on wild adventures. She
stands against renegades, the army, gunslingers, robbers, and more.
The town never new a city girl could save their town. This is only
the first book of many to come in this series. It's full of lies,
murders, mysteries with a twist that will leave you wanting more
and so much more. My books will always have the same peple,
setting, and all. The whole town knows secrets about Leah and her
devoted mountain man that you could never imagine. Even their own
parents are in on the mysterious life they have among the Cheyenne
Indians and the president of the United States. The trust is always
an issue from the shy school teacher to the owner of the saloon.
Durango, Colorado, and Farmington, New Mexico square off against
each other in a fight to control the general area in this tale,
based upon actual facts. Each side is busy rustling cows and horses
from each other's herds and blaming the other. But, Ike and Port
Stockton of the Colorado faction are a little more liberal and
sometimes grab available Colorado ranchers' stock for the butcher
shop.
Ike is a good PR man and influences several Colorado newspapers
to root for them, and for a time Ike is unbelievably described as a
defender of justice against the New Mexico bad guys. But soon the
axe falls; everybody gets their comeuppance. George Woods of the
Colorado group and his story is played out against the backdrop of
the frontier west, and his confused heart gets him into darker
trouble than he can ever imagine.

Jamie has been married for three years and lives in Urich, Missouri
on a farm with her husband Henry and his two brothers. It is 1866
and life is simple, life is good. Jamie gets pregnant and her
parents come to stay for the birth of the new addition to this
small family. Life gets very interesting. It changes in ways she
never dreamed of. This starts the story of life on the Missouri
frontier.
She left home at nineteen to prove to her father, and other men,
that she could do anything a man could do, and better. And she did.
For three years, Skye-Blue Johnston has bounty hunted alongside her
friend Clyde Daniels. She has brought in more outlaws than to be
expected of a woman, and has made a living off it. Clyde and Blue
(as she liked to be called) rode together until his death by an
outlaw she and Clyde had been after. Blue had been devastated after
his death, and took off on her own to the town of Silver City,
Missouri. He was the famed outlaw, the Robin Hood of Liberty,
Missouri. And he had the most feared gang of the west. For many
years, Jesse James and his gang has terrorized banks, stagecoaches,
and trains in the surrounding states of Missouri as a lifestyle. He
has known loss, and has become a hard man for it. Having met the
bounty hunter of Silver City in the Calico Saloon, his (along with
his brother, Frank's and his cousin, Cole's) life is about to
change. When these two forces meet, sparks fly and an electrifying
bond is born. Throughout their obstacles, and meeting Billy the Kid
and Johnny Ringo, they become inseparable. The outlaw and bounty
hunter beat the odds that are against them and find out in the end
that Love is the Ultimate Outlaw.

Chris is the sole survivor of a terrorist attack on an oil drilling
rig off the shore of Chile. His identification is at the bottom of
the Pacific along with his credit cards and cash. He will quickly
learn the world has changed into a "cash only" paradigm. "By hook
or by crook" is now the name of the game. As each person tries to
find their own destiny some are successful while others find
disappointment and more. Chris becomes part of the western U.S. as
the citizens rebuild. Travel becomes more of a threat than
adventure for the unprepared.
The year is 1895, and with the Civil War thirty years in the past,
America is becoming a civilized place-except for the Wild West,
where settlers still fight the elements and the natives. In
Hankswash, Wyoming, word spreads that a tragic murder has set off a
dangerous series of events that threatens to bring an angry war
party, led by Young Lightning Streak, right to the city limits. The
US Army has dispatched a force from Fort Laramie to protect the
small town, but there's little hope that the soldiers can beat the
rampaging Indians to Hankswash. The citizens must prepare for
incoming battle, which likely means hiding as best they can. After
all, how can a woman of the night or a telegraph clerk stand up to
warriors bent on bloody revenge? Only one man could save them all
... Henry Webster Williams is a grumpy horse rancher who prefers it
when the townsfolk of Hankswash stay out of his way-but death
threatens to come to each and every front door, Henry's included.
He was once a soldier in the Civil War, and although he despises
the idea of killing again, old habits die hard. In order to save
his family, his herd, and his own scalp, Henry will have to fight
back-and it's gonna be a hell of a battle.
