Book Description
WHO WAS DUNCAN HENNESSEY? A big and burly mountain man, a half-breed some said, he seemed not unlike the bears he'd saved Betsy Hunter from—wild, powerful, a force of nature. But as she tended the wounds this loner had suffered because of her, Betsy could see that he was gentle, too, with an artist's soul. And though he'd professed to like the lonely existence he'd carved for himself in the wilds of Montana, Betsy knew otherwise. There was no doubt that in Duncan Hennessey, she'd found her true mate for life. But could she pierce the dark cloud of his past— and show him a brighter future in her arms?

Book Description
I'm not Mr. Settle-Down-and-Start-a-Family. Tried it. Failed at it. Don't want it again.I like my solitary life in the mountains. I mind my business and I keep to myself.I learned the hard way that life ain't easy or fair.One minute you think you've got it all figured out and the next, you find your wife in your bed with your own best friend. Then Quinn Prescott shows up to rent the lower level of my cabin. Sweet, innocent Quinn with her persistent attempts to get to know me and her constant questions. Those big doe eyes have a story behind them. She wants more than just a casual hookup and she deserves more.But I'm not the man who can give it to her, and the quicker she understands that, the better.I tell myself just one small touch.One lingering glance into her piercing blue eyes.One taste of her sweet, pouty lips.But it's not just once, it's an all-consuming desire to claim her, to make her mine.I can feel myself losing grip on the situation but I don't care.Then my ex shows up with a baby, claiming it's mine and reminding me why I live by the rules that I do.Only it's too late, I've let Quinn in and now she's carrying a secret of her own.No matter how many times I try to lie to myself, this thing between us isn't just lust--it's something so much more and it's something I'm about to lose forever.Coming soon, book 1 in a brand new mountain man series that will have you swooning for these brooding alphas. Each book in this series will have you clutching your heart with off-the-charts heat and all the feels. You might be tempted to slap these frustrating men a few times but you'll fall in love with each one before it's over. Each book in this series can be read as a stand-alone.

Journal of a Mountain Man
Author: James Clyman
Publisher: Scurlock Publishing Company
ISBN: 9781886609099
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 295
Book Description
These journals preserve, in his own homey words, James Clyman's experiences on the plains and in the mountains during the heyday of the American fur trade and during the peak of emigration to Oregon and California. The events Clyman recorded were momentous. He was a member of Jedediah Smith's first brigade, which discovered South Pass and opened the Intermountain West to the beaver hunters. Crossing the country during the great migration of 1846, he encountered the Donner party and gave them sound advice they tragically ignored. "Journal of a Mountain Man "is especially valuable, says editor Linda Hasselstrom. The journals are "conspicuously sober and meticulous Clyman shows the mental bent of a surveyor: he scrupulously takes measurements and notes down facts Alongside the vivid but exaggerated sketches some mountain men have left us, we are lucky to have the record of one man who was a keen, thorough, and precise observer."

Book Description
"By 1836 the beaver trade was starting to wind down, and trappers like Zach Connors, known as Grizzly Killer, were having to find other ways to get the supplies they had become accustomed to. Zach had found gold nuggets in a creek in the sacred mountains of their home, which he used to make up for the lack of beaver pelts. The Utes and Shoshone alike believe the gold in the creek was given to Grizzly Killer, but no one was allowed to dig for it. After losing everything over a misunderstanding with a Crow hunting party, a group of former Hudson Bay men were ready to leave the mountains. Zach along with his Shoshone allies save these men from certain death at the hands of the Crow. Having nothing left, and feeling desperate for a new start, the men then dig for gold, angering the sacred and mighty Spirit of the Mountain." --
