    About this ebook

    It is time for the spring roundup in the mountain country of Wyoming. The year is 1885 when the beef industry is on the rise and the cattle barons are fighting tooth and nail to win the lucrative rewards it brings.
    The small section of Columbine Winter’s homestead that sits between two big ranches holds a safe haven for the mavericks that the larger ranchers gather and divide between themselves come roundup time. Columbine collects a small dividend for the privilege but when the stranger arrives as a hired hand things start to change.
    James January comes to her under some false pretenses but soon proves he is up to taking a firm hand with both the ranchers and the tough-minded widow.
    A deeply depraved neighbor coasting on a seething bed of wickedness decides to prove who is boss in the neighborhood. It is a moment when JJ needs to stand tall for Columbine and he determines that, at whatever cost, a cold winter will come early for someone in the valley this year.

    It’s not such a big step from pictures to writing.And that’s how it started out for me. I’ve illustrated more Western book covers than I care to mention and been doing it for a long time. No hardship, I hasten to add, I love the genre and have since a kid, although originally I made my name painting the cover art for other people, now at least, I manage to create covers for my own books.A long-term closet writer, only comparatively recently, with a family grown and the availability of self-publishing have I managed to be able to write and get my stories out there.As I did when illustrating, research counts a lot and has inspired many of my Westerns and Thrillers to have a basis in historical fact or at least weave their tale around the seeds of factual content.Having such a visual background, mostly it’s a matter of describing the pictures I see in my head and translating them to the written page. I guess that’s why one of my early four-star reviewers described the book like a ‘Western movie, fast paced and full of action.’I enjoy writing them; I hope folks enjoy reading the results.
