1870, Philadelphia, USA. Martha Whitcomb, the wild child of Philadelphia society, is now a grown woman, independent in wealth and in personality. At twenty-three, still unmarried and childless, she is exposed to constant rumors and ridicule, crushed by the ever-increasing weight of the sneers and jibes of her peers, and haunted by the failed engagement to the one who got away. Her dreams of becoming a successful businesswoman are blocked at every turn by the men around her, who are determined to smother the voice of a young woman intruding in their world. Realizing that she will never fit into the mold already set by society, Martha joins the droves of Americans heading west to the open frontier, a world that appears free from restraints, from convention, and from the expectations she has come to loathe. Upon her arrival to the growing town of Paradise Reach, she believes that she has indeed found her paradise. She soon realizes, however, why this town's inhabitants have dubbed it Purgatory Reach. She quickly learns that the west is free from the suffocating rules because it is a world more focused on immediate survival. It is a world where an insult could quickly escalate to a gunfight in the streets, a dangerous world crawling with outlaws, thieves, liars, and schemers. One of these outlaws is Jack Gatling, a rancher-turned-gambler. Escaping both demons of his own and the law, Jack came to Paradise Reach in hopes of making his fortune only to find himself focused on staying alive until tomorrow. In Martha, he sees an opportunity of his own, a chance to earn the riches he has been chasing. Martha knows she has two choices: return to Philadelphia with her tail between her legs and lock herself back in her gilded cage, or succeed in a world where women have few choices but to sell their bodies to make a living. Can Purgatory Reach again become Paradise? **Sequel to Dear Rhodora**

Draco Malfoy could not possibly be having a shittier week. He's been kidnapped by not one, but two gangs in the last week, and he'd be lying if he said he wasn't fed up with the 'Wild East' only a day into the journey. When his father sent him to scout territory for new ranching land in Northern Maine, he's thrown into the new terrain rather harshly. First his train gets hijacked, then he gets held captive in a God-Awful smelling shack, and then he gets shot and kidnapped again? Life suddenly doesn't seem all too bad, however, when a flirty, charming and completely uncouth gang leader by the name of Harry Potter recruits him in.

When a teenage boy comes North to escape his childhood he comes to a local ranchers farm and tries to make a life for himself.

The classic tale of an outlaw, who's not such a bad guy at all, who is plagued by a past full of mistakes and shortcomings, who fails to overcome his dark past so he gives it all up to hitch a ride on an old train in hope of finding a better tomorrow in this song. The lyrics are a tribute to vintage country music songwriting. (Merle Haggard, Johnny Cash, etc.)

She's a wild, notorious outlaw & he's a smitten sheriff. She's his world & he's her weakness. "I'm gonna kill ya if ya don't leave, Sheriff Stephen Austin." Her whole body shook with sobs that wanted to be released. "You won't though, because you love me and we both know it." He knew he was taking a leap of faith. That's when she pulled the gun.

In 1899, rumors in the saloons began to circulate about a notorious troublemaker resurfacing to wreak havoc once more. This dishonorable and wild gunslinger was related by blood to the infamous Black Belle. News of this spread quickly from Valentine, drawing the attention of countless bounty hunters who set their sights and aimed their guns at the outlaw. One man, in particular, seemed destined to cross paths with the criminal repeatedly. Did the Van Der Linde gang track down the infamous Golden Cobra to claim the bounty, or did they form an alliance and work together?
