"There were hard times in Texas in 1875.

To the ranchers aid comes broad-shouldered Ben Anthony, with his slow, lazy smile. His lovely girl, Bess, has gotten herself engaged to dubious Harry Odell, who...

Over in Johnson County, they said, the war had already started. Hired gunmen, a small army of professional killers, were raiding and burning, slaughtering anyone who stood against them. Dave Ashmead was an honest, hard-working, small rancher who wanted...

"A dust-covered cowboy read the weather-beaten placard, his fearless gray eyes flaring into a savage glitter. Then he roweled his horse along the trail to Halfway. Happy Day was a stranger in the Powder River section where rustlers stooped to murder and old ranchers were waging a losing fight.

The one thing she can't do is fall in love... at least not if she wants to save her sister. Alejandra Loyola knows she's going to die.

The only question is, will she be able to see her younger sister provided for before she dies? When successful...
