The Horse Tamer's Challenge

In the aftermath of the Custer debacle, Rebecca Susan Bennett's dying father had sworn her to rescue her twin sister Amy - an Indian captive - or kill her!

'You might be keeping that promise on your own death bed,' was the reaction from Lucas Swallow, bound by his honor to help Rebecca if he could.
For Lucas, , Rebecca was a challenge and her plight a burden of the blood debt he couldn't ignore. For the gently-reared Rebecca, the very land she traveled was an enemy; she hated and feared the west for its rawness, its violence. Her growing attraction to this enigmatic, mysterious man only complicated things further.

But she refused to let her fears defeat her. She began her search as an innocent idealist. She ended it as Une femme aux cheveux couleur du soleil couchant, qui vainct ses ennemis grâce à un fusil sans balles - Sunset woman who defeats her enemies with an empty rifle.
And in the process, Rebecca found not only her sister, but herself.


Genre: Western

"The Horse Tamer's Challenge is a gritty, gut-wrenching adventure story that stirs the imagination and satisfies the heart. This is the stuff of which legends and bestsellers are made. A panorama of how the West was really won, it's filled with the kind of love, adventure, danger and history that keeps readers turning the pages to the very satisfying end. Not since the heyday of Louis L'Amour has there been a western this well-researched, this well-written." - Fran Baker
