Book Description
In a hail of thunder and gunfire, Jeston Nash fled a New Orleans billiards hall with a land deed in one hand, a blazing pistol in the other. He’d won his gamble with Quick Quintan Cordell fair and square. But in seconds, violence flared, Cordell lay dead, and Sheriff Pat Garrett’s promise still rang in Nash’s ears ... somewhere, someday, they would meet again... Jeston Nash learned about robbery from his cousin, Jesse James. But it was the wild outlaw Billy the Kid who taught him that even a wanted man is just a man. Nash catches up with the Kid in a dusty town of drunken bottle-shooters. Along with a scraggly band of gamblers and gunslingers, they ride for New Mexico, where, for Billy the Kid, freedom lies just beyond the border. For Nash, the enchanted land holds the chance to exchange his hard-won land deed for the beautiful and seductive Contessa Cortez. But their dreams turn to dust in the face of revolutionists, scalp hunters, and the deadliest threat of all—the determined Sheriff Pat Garrett, who plans to take Nash down with the Kid, all in the name of justice.

Book Description
Jeston Nash knew horses—he’s stolen enough of them in his time. But the lookalike cousin of Jesse James was going respectable, almost. Then, in a New Orleans teeming with drunks and blue uniforms, he sold a horse to a well-bred lady. It was the biggest mistake of his career .... He hit Fort Lincoln with a belly full of wounds and minus a boot. His horse had been stolen, and he’d stolen it back—along with some bootleg crackers. All in all, it hadn’t been a pleasant trip through the dreaded Black Hills. But at least Jeston Nash—for the time being calling himself Beatty—hadn’t drowned. Now he fully intended to fulfill a promise: to deliver an unridable horse called Honest Bob to a woman named Custer. The trouble was, the wife of General George Armstrong Custer, Elizabeth, wasn’t very interested in the horse she’d persuaded Nash to deliver. In fact, Mrs. Custer was on the warpath. So were the Sioux—and General Custer’s commanders in Washington. Suddenly, Nash finds himself in the middle of the most dangerous kind of fight: a marital squabble. Before he knows it he’s riding alongside a hardheaded, buffalo-hunting, blond-haired general who’s sure glory awaits them—at a place called Little Big Horn ....
