Book Description
Bounty hunter Zane Reed arrives in town, vowing to hunt down the escaped criminal Ernest Craddock at any cost. An easy job--except for his new client, Verbena McPhee. She captures him with her kindness and beauty, but how can a drifter, a rough man with a dangerous past, fit into her world? It's impossible. He'll give his life if that's what it takes to protect her, but he can't give her his heart. Verbena McPhee will never trust another man again, not after her experience with Ernest. No, being kidnapped and beaten once was enough, thanks. She's done risking her heart--totally, completely, end of story. Yet the more time she spends with Zane, the more his strength and tenderness tug at her like a cherished dream. He's the one stellar exception, someone she can trust two hundred percent--except for one problem. He's not a staying kind of man.This is book #3 in the historical series, The McPhee Clan, and is not a true stand alone title. High Mountain Drifter is best read after book #1, Montana Hearts and book #2 The Sweetest Thing.

Book Description
"DePoy, a folklorist, excels at providing local color and creating complex characters. The story unfolds slowly and lyrically, giving readers a sense of small-town Appalachian atmosphere." –Booklist on A Minister's Ghost "By far DePoy's best, with top-notch plotting, full-blown characters, and a bit of Shakespeare thrown in." – Kirkus Reviews (starred) on A Minister's Ghost Fever Devilin, born and raised amongst the hill country folk of the Georgia Appalachians, left home a long time ago and pursued an education, then a career, in the wider outside world. A folklorist by inclination and profession, he left the strange world of academia behind to return to his family-home in the if-anything-stranger mountain town he grew up in. But oddness follows Fever wherever he goes and Blue Mountain, Georgia is no different. When a man shows up at his house, claiming to be over a hundred years old even though he looks like he's in his 30's, Fever is pretty sure his guest is not right. When the man starts to wave a gun around, then falls suddenly asleep immediately afterward, Fever thinks he's both "not right" and "dangerous" and slips out to call the sheriff. The sheriff, Fever's childhood friend, has been hearing reports of this particular vagrant all day but before he can get out there, the man disappears. In the early morning, the body of man that fits the description of the mysterious vagrant is found by the side of the road, shot to death. But, although the body is wearing the same clothes that the vagrant was, it isn't the same person.

Revenge of the Mountain Man Smoke Jensen is buying cattle a hundred miles away from his Colorado ranch when he gets devastating news. Drawing two horses from the remuda, he rides off and doesn’t stop until he reaches his wife’s side. She’d been shot three times and lay close to death. Smoke Jensen knows the outlaws who committed this cowardly crime had come for him. And now he’s coming for them . . .

Book Description
Every now and then, in history, a prolific and sound voice arises. And if ever a rising wave of such a new and inspiring voice would emerge, it might compare in the new American release, premiere novel by writer, Mr. Hopey Whisperwind. Beckoning with oscillations of an enrapturing tale, Mr. Whisperwind brings us to The River Called Silence. In his novel, Whisperwind eloquently spans the centuries of time, in order to weave a hauntingly intriguing story of his native people, the Low-Tow-Pee Indians of the North Carolina Mountains. Spoken in two installments, Book One opens with a prologue, titled, The Prophecy of the Sparrow, a recounting by Mr. Whisperwind of the sacred promise given to the Low-Tow-Pee before his time. Thereafter, in the beginning chapters, Mr. Whisperwind is living and working in New York City as a magazine journalist with his soon to be fiancée. Unannounced, he is called back home, to be amongst his tribe. Upon his return to his hometown of Cool Ridge, North Carolina, he is summoned to reawaken the fire of healing hands that was upon him as a child, in order to heal his ailing Grandmother, Lily Whisperwind. However, on this occasion, his healing, which the Low-Tow-Pee calls the Fever, is unable to cure her. His Grandmother passes away through the night. The next day, to Mr. Whisperwind's and his tribe's surprise, his Grandmother's Will states that Whisperwind is to inherit all of her belongings, the 100 year old home and her tattered journal within it. So then, the true journey begins as Mr. Whisperwind encounters the pages of her writings that speak of old walking spirits, a young love that blooms within a wondrous hidden world of heavenly things, and the praying hearts of a prophecy fulfilled. A well defined, timeless masterpiece at the heart of what makes every human human; The River Called Silence faithfully reaches out to its readers with a prolific and sound voice. Tweren't for love where, O' where would I be?
