After fighting a Mexican rebellion in Taos, Will Barlow and White Bear head for San Diego to search for Will’s beloved daughter. After five hard years, they are finally close to the end. There is word that a child named Anna is living with a Mexican family nearby. Will Barlow wants nothing more than to have his daughter back. But five years is a long time. And even if this is his little girl, there is a chance she won’t remember him, a chance that she doesn’t know she is lost—or doesn’t even want to be found...

Ever since he left his daughter in San Diego with the only family she remembers, Will Barlow has been tormented over the loss of his little girl. So when his longtime friend White Bear suggests they head to Taos to find themselves a couple of bare-shouldered señoritas, Will agrees that it’s as good a place as any in which to drown his sorrows. Back in town just a few days, the pair find themselves accused of gunning down a U.S. soldier and thrown in jail. Facing certain execution, they do the only thing they can to stay alive: break out of the rotting cell and split up. To dodge the soldiers on his trail, Barlow joins up with a wagon train delivering goods to the Settlements, only to encounter one savage enemy after another—each one more life-threatening than the last…

The thrilling mountain man series from the creators of Longarm! With a caravanful of ornery pioneers in his command, hired mountain man and guide Will Barlow is loaded down with duties. Foraging for the group’s food, for one. Breaking up fights among his charges, for another. And—although one couldn’t rightly count this as a duty, exactly—stealing time enough for some good, old-fashioned rollicks in the grass with one lusty pioneer-gal. Aside from a few mishaps along the Oregon Trail, Barlow is confident (perhaps too confident) that the troupe’ll arrive safe and sound at the West Coast.

Mountain man Will Barlow came to the West seeking adventure, working as an Indian hunter, fur trapper, and a hired hand. What he found was something even better: a woman who could tame his wild spirit. But when Will finally settles down to start a family, a pack of murderous Indians kill his wife and steal his baby daughter, Anna. Now he'll do anything to find her, and God help anyone who gets in his way.

After a band of Native Americans destroyed Will Barlow’s home, killed his wife and son, and kidnapped his young daughter, he spent months wallowing in grief. But now he’s ready for revenge. While frantically searching for his missing child, Will comes across a wagonful of damsels in distress. He agrees to protect them from the ferocious Indians who ravaged their wagon train—and he’s delighted to discover that these ladies are as lustful as they are lovely. But despite these lascivious diversions, Will is still focused on finding his little girl—no matter how dangerous his mission might be.

Barlow continues the search for his daughter in the wild Shoshoni Territory. Joining him on this quest is an unlikely ally: the Indian trader White Bear. But dead ahead are the Blackfeet—and a bloodbath.

Can a down-on-her-luck princess really have it all? A whisper away from thirty, gorgeous Tess Hamilton has been the tennis world’s top titleholder and celebrity since she won her first championship at fifteen. Now the headline-making party girl is getting her first taste of mortality–thanks to new teenage phenom Gabrielle Fontaine. But it’s Gaby’s cool, calm, and all-too-collected brother and manager, Max, who really has Tess seeing double. He’s the first man she can’t seem to seduce–or intimidate. It appears Tess is truly off her game, until a real-life, modern-day fairy godmother steps in.… Aurora Favreaux, a founder of Glass Slipper, Inc., and an old family friend, has a plan to get Tess back on her stilettos, and it includes an unlikely meeting between Tess, Max, and Gaby at Glass Slipper’s new London headquarters–just in time for Wimbledon. It seems that Tess is going to hit the courts in a whole new way, to prove to the world–and herself–that a woman with the heart of a champion can ace life and love–even after the big 3-0.…

Since a July night in 1881 when he was shot down at the age of 21, Billy the Kid has been a victim of the myths that surrounded and captured him. This vivid interpretation of the Kid's life and character will come as an exciting revelation to readers who may have been familiar only with the earlier fictionalized versions. For here is real, moving tragedy painted in broad brush strokes with the vivid hues of the stark American Southwestern landscape. Never before has there been brought into true focus the Lincoln County War, which broke out in 1878 in the then Territory of New Mexico, and which furnished the background and the period for the adventures of this extraordinary boy. The literature concerning both the desperate cattle war and the singular young outlaw have necessarily been constructed around a thin framework of fact with its papier maché façade of myth and legend. So persistent have been these legends that the true character of the Kid seemed almost beyond reach. Indeed, the Western poet, Arthur Chapman, once wrote that "Billy the Kid must remain wholly the most unaccountable figure in frontier history." Frazier Hunt (1885 - 1968) had the good fortune to have access to a great mass of fresh and unpublished source material which fully documents this thrilling history of the Kid and his times. It is a new and rather appealing boy who now comes to light-an alert, likeable yet tough youngster, adored by the native Mexicans no less for his fluency in Spanish than for his kindness and consideration, but no wanton killer. In place of the former distorted figure of legend, a young man of flesh and blood and heart emerges into clear perspective. So at last we have the real Billy the Kid-authentic, true-and completely accountable.
