Piper loves her town—but does she love Colby? And is he even ready for what comes next? Pecos Smith, Honey Creek&’s emergency dispatcher, is grateful to have a new bride he adores and a baby on the way—even if one vital piece of the puzzle is missing.

When Jackie Dunbar's father dies, she takes a leave from medical school and goes back to the family cattle ranch…
in Colorado to set affairs in order. But what she finds derails her: the Dunbar ranch is bankrupt, her sister is having a nervous breakdown, and the oil and gas industry has changed the landscape of this small western town both literally and figuratively, tempting her to sell a gas lease to save the family land. There is fencing to be repaired and calves to be born, and no one—except Jackie herself—to take control. But then a gas well explodes in the neighboring ranch, and the fallout sets off a chain of events that will strain trust, sever old relationships, and ignite new ones. Rebecca Clarren's Kickdown is a tautly written debut novel about two sisters and the Iraq war veteran who steps in to help. It is a timeless and timely meditation on the grief wrought by death, war, and environmental destruction. Kickdown, like Kent Haruf's Plainsong or Daniel Woodrell's Winter's Bone, weaves together the threads of land, family, failure, and perseverance to create a gritty tale about rural America.

Edge-of-your-seat thrillers from the greatest Western author ever.There will never be another Western writer like Louis L'Amour. A legendary author…
and indisputably the greatest storyteller in his genre of all time, L'Amour captivated millions of readers and has sold well over three hundred million copies of his works, which includes nearly ninety novels and countless short stories.Mistakes Can Kill You highlights an essential selection featuring nine of L'Amour's earlier short stories, sometimes written under the pen name Jim Mayo, that exemplify the rugged morality of the best Western writing. In "Black Rock Coffin-Makers," two men ready to kill over ownership of a ranch get more than they bargain for when a stranger is caught in the crossfire. And in "Four- Card Draw," Allen Ring wins a ranch in a poker game, only to find out an unsolved murder was committed there years ago and law enforcement thinks Ring knows more about it than he's letting on.L'Amour made his characters come alive on the page, and his ability to capture the spirit and authenticity of the Wild West is unrivaled. Mistakes Can Kill You transports you to a world you'll never want to leave, and proves that Louis L'Amour will always be the king of spinning a classic Western yarn.

The year is 1910. Nate Cooper is an old-school cowboy who has spent nearly thirty years in a Montana prison…
of a wrongful life sentence for a false murder conviction. Nate's moral compass is true and unwavering: he does all the wrong things for all the right reasons. Upon his release he learns that the turn of the century has brought great change--none of it good. Horses are being replaced by the motorcar, his girlfriend has long ago married his best friend, his nemesis is running for Governor, and the Blackfoot Indians (the people he went to prison trying to defend) are still being betrayed by ranchers. So some things haven’t changed. Nate is one of them. He returns to his Northern Montana ranching town a free man and stirs up the pot of controversy immediately—seeking justice, evading hired guns, brawling in saloons, righting past wrongs, and ferreting out--with the help of a young newspaper reporter and the woman he used to love--a fraudulent boundary adjustment robbing the Blackfoot (again) of their territory. Along the way, he ruffles feathers all the way to the State House, and before the storm he brings is over, he and the friends of his youth will all pay a shockingly high price for justice.

Rusty Sabin was born to white parents but brought up by the Cheyenne Indians, who named the redheaded boy Red…
Hawk. His ability to heal the sick and to make strange magic is widely honored throughout the tribe. But in his twenties, Red Hawk sets out to take his place among white people. When Rusty and his stallion White Horse are nearly at the frontier post of Fort Marston, the river boat he's riding is grounded, and a man called Bill Tenney comes to his rescue.Rusty doesn't know much about the white man's ways--especially a white man like Bill Tenney, a thief and a fugitive. Tenney is only interested in one thing--Rusty's white stallion, considered sacred among the Cheyennes. Meanwhile Major Marston is determined to come between Rusty and his sweetheart, Maisry, and the Cheyennes do all they can to compel Rusty to return to his tribe.First serialized in 1934, Brothers of the Cheyennes--the second installment of the Rusty Sabin trilogy--cemented Max Brand's reputation as one of the most exciting and talented writers working in the Western genre. To this day, Rusty Sabin remains an indelible American character, caught between two worlds and simply trying to do the right thing.
