Book Description
She's the beauty with a smile that won't quit and a heart of gold. He's the cranky, prideful rancher who wants help from no one. Trouble is... she won't take no for an answer. Quirky, six-foot-tall Clara Miller has it all. And although she's on the bigger side, she's gorgeous from head to toe. She's got all the money she could ever need, a successful ranch where she gets to tend to her chickens and vegetable garden, and a Papa and siblings who are loving and supportive. So why does it still feel like something's missing? Nathan Westbrook is living a nightmare. He's angry, bitter, scarred, in constant pain, and beyond frustrated. Getting struck by lightning will do that to a man. He was practically self-sustained on his homestead. Now it's tough just getting dressed everyday, much less getting the animals fed and the gardens tended to. When Clara volunteers at church to take a meal and groceries to a man on the outskirts of town, she has no idea what she's in for. After all, she just wants to be of service. And seeing folks enjoy her food makes her day. Nathan doesn't want anyone's help. He's a loner and likes it that way. Then one day, she busts down his door, and everything changes. Can this country beauty tame the beast Nathan has become? Or will he run her off before she has the chance...

Pages : 403
Book Description
A severe head injury causes loss of memory, with no name, Dave responds to an internal compass to guide him in search for his old life. Without recall of another life, now known as Dave Larson, he finds work as a ranch-hand in 1887 Montana Territory. Significant troubles plague the ranch owned by Buff Dugan; malicious destruction of fences, attempted cattle rustling, and a midnight ambush of the foreman. Dave takes on the foreman duties of the beleaguered ranch operation, but functions less ably due to overwork and the disabling head injury. Rancher Curly Watson is suspected of provocations to disrupt the peace of the valley, but his motives are hidden. Dugan's niece, Lucy Smith, arrives in search of her missing husband, only to discover he is already working on the ranch. Learning his amnesia is selective, a sense of guilt pervades because eighty thousand in gold bars is missing, and Dave is sought by the authorities as the thief. Guilty is guilty does: a warrant for his arrest impels Jim Bowen, his old partner, to go after Dave. Mistrust and guilt, deprivation and pain, perseverance and courage achieve journey's end....

A Ranching Saga
Author: William Curry Holden
Publisher: Trinity University Press
ISBN: 1595348271
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 532
Book Description
A Ranching Saga tells the story of father and son pioneer ranchers in the Southwest. Around the turn of the century, William Electious Halsell and Ewing Halsell were integral to the growing ranching industry in Texas and Oklahoma. Through newspaper accounts, legal documents, personal correspondence, and interviews with family members, friends, and acquaintances, A Ranching Saga recounts the lives of these two keen businessmen, proud civic leaders, and philanthropists. What is revealed is a legacy of hard work, moral character, and compassion, as well as a close relationship with the land. Texas historian William Curry Holden sifts through correspondence, reports and statistics, and extensive research to tell of three generations of the Halsell family, from their arrival in Texas in 1854 to the mid-twentieth century. Holden enriches the family narrative with personal accounts of the places, geology, flora, fauna, weather, economics, and history of the region. He interviewed more than 150 people to understand the characters and personalities of the two men whose cultural influence on Texas and the Southwest region spans more than a century. Illustrated with nearly two dozen drawings by José Cisneros , A Ranching Saga is the biography of family whose destiny was realized in the cattle they nurtured, the land they loved, and the people they encouraged along the way.
