Young Bradon McTavish watches the bluecoats brutally hang his father and destroy everything he's known, and he escapes their wrath into the gunsmoke and blood of war. Captured and paroled, only if he'll head west of the war, he rides the river into the wilds of the new territory of Montana where savages and grizzlies await. He discovers new friends and old enemies...and a woman formerly forbidden to him. Action adventure at it's best from the author of Nemesis, Mr. Pettigrew, the Montana Series, and many more acclaimed westerns and historicals.

When word finally reaches him that his sister and her family have died a horrid death at the hands of a cattle baron and his craven cowhands, Taggart McBain comes down off the mountain with bear traps, a double barrel coach gun, two LeMats, and a Winchester. He's on the hunt. When the task is done and blood soaks the Nemesis, NV desert, he receives a shock-his sister is still alive.Now, with posters on every trail in Idaho and Montana territories, and a killer's price on his head, he's on the prowl. What he finds is an equal shock, but not so much as to those who hunt him. When the hunter becomes the hunted, there's pure hell to pay.

In this rollicking western romance, written by New York Times bestselling author Kat Martin, with husband L. J. Martin, Jessica Taggart, fresh out of a Boston finishing school, comes West…to discover the "restaurant" she's inherited from her late father is actually a saloon and bawdy house! And to add to the insult, it's run by a handsome rogue, Jake Weston, who owns 49% of Taggart Enterprises. When Jessica discovers her father has been murdered, her suspicion of everyone and everything begins to deepen. She's not one to run from a problem, but half the city wants what she has…including Weston...and many will resort to anything to get it. And she's a young woman alone on San Francisco's infamous, lawless and wicked Barbary Coast!
