Book excerpt: When Dave Runyan set out to deliver a wagonload of barbed wire to a farmer in Wayward, Wyoming, he knew there might be trouble. After all, some of the ranchers referred to barbed wire as "the devil's rope" and they might try to keep the stuff far away from their county. But even before Dave reached Wayward, he ran into something far more frightening than a few angry ranchers. For a smallpox epidemic had broken out. The U.S. Cavalry was trying to prevent the spread of the deadly disease, and Dave ended up helping them. That was before he knew one of the army officers had a sickness more hateful than smallpox--and a plan to turn Dave's wire into a true devil's rope!

Book excerpt: The Ridgeway family faces their greatest challenge when a devastating drought threatens to spark an open range war, forcing them to fight for their ranch, their dream—and their lives . . . DEATH BY THE DEVIL’S ROPE It’s the summer of 1883. A severe drought threatens to bankrupt the Ridgeway’s Rocking R Ranch and every rancher in northwest Texas. The cattle are thirsty and hungry. The ranchers are getting desperate. And a simple new invention called barbed wire—the devil’s rope—is their only defense against illegal herders grazing on their land. Percy Ridgeway and his brother Eli are working overtime to stake a fence around their sixty thousand acres. But someone keeps cutting the wires. The Ridgeways keep fixing them. And soon Perry is tangled in a high-stakes showdown with a thieving cattleman named Northcutt and his cutthroat henchmen. Let the battle begin . . . History would call it the Fence Wars of 1883. The Ridgeways would call it the summer they fought back—come hell or dry water . . .

Book excerpt: Slocum’s got just enough rope to hang himself…or someone else. With buzzards circling in the sky, young Tom Garvin hopes his search for the lost cattle of the Bar M Ranch has not ended in vain. It turns out the carrion those birds are after isn’t cows but the body of a man hanging from a dying tree with a very mysterious black rope around his neck. Impressed by the rope, Garvin decides to take it—along with the dead man’s beautiful horse—back to the ranch where he works with John Slocum. And the two of them are about to learn that this is one rope they don’t want to be at the end of…

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this murderous twist on The Little Mermaid, alchemist Red discovers that true love can be more dangerous than it seems. It’ll take the help of her friends to answer the question . . . . . . when devotion has a deadly price, what does it take to keep your head above water? Red and her magical talking dog, William, are looking forward to a vacation. They’re spending the first days of summer in Seaside, a quaint beach town, to celebrate the wedding of a merfolk friend. But when the groom’s father is murdered during a pre-wedding feast, all that love in the air turns sour. Of course, when Red’s friends ask her to help them investigate, she immediately agrees. But despite her best intentions, there’s something about this mystery that has her feeling like she’s in over her head. Was the murderer angry about the marriage between merfolk and human, or perhaps scared of an old prophecy coming to light? Was it a vengeful sea witch out for a blood price–or was it an eco-terrorist? When Officer Thorn shows up as a special police guild detective and Red finally learns to lean on her friends (including a few more surprise faces from Belville!), it’s only a matter of time before the answer washes up.
