Languages : en
Pages : 626
Book Description
Three steamy, feel-good small town love stories featuring gruff, heart-stealing cowboys and the strong, feisty heroines they fall for in Lonesome Point, Texas. --LEATHER AND LACE (Sawyer) Old West restoration expert Sawyer Kane knows his share about ghosts. For years, he’s been haunted by the violence in his past. He’s certain he’s unfit for happily ever after…until he meets the irrepressible Mia. Can he convince Lonesome Point’s resident prankster that love is worth the risk? Or will a dark shadow from Mia’s past claim her life before Sawyer can claim her heart? --SADDLES AND SIN (Robert) Robert Lawson is six feet, four inches of tall, dark, and handsome cowboy, with a panty-melting voice and a face made to launch a country music career. Women are already throwing themselves at his feet, but Robert only has eyes for his manager, Marisol. He’s a gentleman on the street, pure alpha between the sheets, and determined to show the all-business Marisol that romance is alive and well and good men are even better when they’re given permission to be bad. --DIAMONDS AND DUST (Pike) Pike Sherman is a legend in Lonesome Point, a hometown boy who made it to the big leagues. Literally. Professional baseball acquired one hell of a pitching arm and its latest celebrity bad boy when the gifted Pike was drafted. His broken heart came along for the ride, too, but he kept that private. After a few days back in Lonesome Point, Pike can't imagine life without Tulsi, the girl he left behind, but when Tulsi's secret is revealed, his heart is broken all over again. The only thing worse than losing the woman he loved, is losing six years with the daughter he didn't know he had.

Hood's Texas Brigade
Author: Susannah J. Ural
Publisher: LSU Press
ISBN: 0807167606
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 399
Book Description
The Texas Brigade of the Army of Northern Virginia was one of the best units to fight on either side in the American Civil War. Three factors made that success possible: their strong self-identity as Confederates, the mutual respect shared between the brigade's junior officers and their men, and a constant desire to maintain their reputation not just as Texans, but also as the best soldiers in Robert E. Lee's army and all the Confederacy. Hood's Texas Brigade is a study of the soldiers and families of this elite unit that challenges key historical arguments about soldier motivation, volunteerism and desertion, home front morale, and veterans' postwar adjustment.

Historic Native Peoples of Texas
Author: William C. Foster
Publisher: University of Texas Press
ISBN: 0292781911
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 368
Book Description
An incredibly detailed account of Indigenous lifeways during the initial rounds of European exploration in south-central North America. Several hundred tribes of Native Americans were living within or hunting and trading across the present-day borders of Texas when Cabeza de Vaca and his shipwrecked companions washed up on a Gulf Coast beach in 1528. Over the next two centuries, as Spanish and French expeditions explored the state, they recorded detailed information about the locations and lifeways of Texas’s Native peoples. Using recent translations of these expedition diaries and journals, along with discoveries from ongoing archaeological investigations, William C. Foster here assembles the most complete account ever published of Texas’s Native peoples during the early historic period (AD 1528 to 1722). Foster describes the historic Native peoples of Texas by geographic regions. His chronological narrative records the interactions of Native groups with European explorers and with Native trading partners across a wide network that extended into Louisiana, the Great Plains, New Mexico, and northern Mexico. Foster provides extensive ethnohistorical information about Texas’s Native peoples, as well as data on the various regions’ animals, plants, and climate. Accompanying each regional account is an annotated list of named Indigenous tribes in that region and maps that show tribal territories and European expedition routes. “A very useful encyclopedic regional account of the Europeans and Native peoples of Texas who encountered one another during the relatively unexamined two hundred years before the Spanish occupation of Texas and the French establishment of Louisiana.” —Southwestern Historical Quarterly
