Hard Country

Book excerpt: The bestselling Western author continues his bold saga of the American frontier, where one man fights for the very survival of the town called Fury. It’s hard country, but the pioneers of Fury (Pop. 112) are banding together to make it a home. With barren lands, blinding dust storms, drought, hostile Apaches, and violent bands of cutthroat outlaws against them, death is never far away. It’s enough to make Jason Fury, whose father the town was named after, ride out for San Francisco. But a fiery young redhead named Megan McDonald keeps him Arizona bound—and just in time. When another Apache attack finds the marshal’s badge pinned to Jason’s unwilling chest, he turns out to be the right man to do whatever it takes—for . . .
