Book Description
After Jack Donovan's parents are killed in a raid on the Oregon Trail, he's brought up by the wagon train scout: half white, half Sioux. At the age of thirteen, Jack is a drifter, until he rides into the Double M ranch in Cedar Creek. The legend of Jack Donovan begins here, when he takes down rustlers and a glory-hunting gunslinger. Now, returning from the civil war, Jack finds that a carpetbagger is trying to take over the Double M. Faced with Jack and the Bailey brothers, the carpetbagger has hired some of the fastest guns in the West to win the Cedar Creek war. But what he doesn't know is that Jack is the fastest gun of them all. THE LEGEND OF JACK DONOVAN is the first book in the Bailey Clan Westerns series, set in the harsh mid-19th century American Frontier.

Book Description
From barroom brawls to Main Street shootouts, Ride the Ranger Winds offers non-stop action of true to life Texas Rangers. From Captain Beasley to Laughlin McFarland and all the other Ranger Recruits, their one common denominator was their own personal integrity and straight forward approach to the dangerous life on the frontier. See how the author grasps the savagery of the times in the Ranger's raw dealings with murderers, rapists, cattle rustlers, outlaws and Indians. In an era with little, or no, political influence, the action is sometimes brutal and crude. Intertwined with the perils of the untamed west, romance is incorporated into the daily lives of the characters. Like mythical sailors with a girl in every port, the Rangers had their romantic interludes while on the trail of desperados. Follow Laughlin as he grapples with his life on the trail and his decision whether to marry Melissa and quit the Rangers, or continue his dangerous life on the Range.......Does he find an acceptable compromise?
