Cooper Price is part of a dying industry.

With civilization moving further and further west, honest, hardworking folk get left in the dust. The family farm's going under, and all Cooper can do is tread water until it pulls the whole family down with it.

But his father has other plans, ones that involve a gang of outlaws and a price too high for any man to pay with coin alone. The whole affair is kept secret, and Rhett refuses to tell anyone what the terms of the agreement with Miss Clara were, even when it's his family caught in the middle. Cooper's suspects the new ranch hand, John, might have more to do with his father's deal than a man in need of a job, but they need the help, and John's a hard worker.

The West is changing, and maybe Cooper ain't afraid of it, but civilization breeds secrecy, and it's already invaded the Price family.All Rights Reserved

Blood Bourbon by WiskeySins

A down to earth cowboy with a past is thrown into the supernatural world, when he falls for a vampire who has demons of his own. Daryl's a bullfighter on the national circuit, stretching his pay check as far as it will go between himself and his brother's farm back in Texas. He also has the misfortune of being incredibly unlucky in love and stumbles into the wrong bar trying to forget a night he can only half remember. The bartender tells him to not go looking for trouble, but amongst the dark shadows and beautiful faces, it finds him in the form of Ryker. Ryker isn't known for being a nice guy. He's got a line that most people would believe is too malleable, but he is one of the good guys. Always shooting off his mouth at the wrong time or getting himself into fights he should avoid (but can handle) he sees the cowboy and goes in search of a fight. But neither man is prepared for the battle of wills and emotions that ensue from their broken attempts at understanding whatever it is that draws them together time and again. The more Daryl is drawn into Ryker's dark world, the more obvious it is that the Cowboy's half forgotten past may be more related to the shadow games and machinations of the very agency that has been trying to kill Ryker and the rest of the supernatural world for decades now. Mature themes. Violence, Swears. (Based in the universe of @Whiskeyjanedoe 's Breaking series. This is a little more than a love story) cover by @whiskeyjanedoe

The Real Fuckin' Legacy by themysteriousbadger

This town's an absolute hellhole, so the locals will tell you. What happens if you have to defend it? It's a classic story: a Scottish ex-mining town that's barely survived its own demise since the '80s. They take care of their own here, which means that people like Alex, a young English woman who was dragged up by this town rather than raised by it, get pushed to the sides when it comes to friendship, loyalty, belonging. That is, until the war comes. When the town is abandoned to enemy forces by a worn and rapidly retreating British army, Alex has to decide between committing to protect a people that have never shown her true affection, or deserting them altogether to suffer a terrible fate.

On the Outskirts by EmelySwift

~"When are you going to do what's best for you Sadie? All you ever do is what's best for Hallie and push your own wants and needs to the bottom of the pile and let it hurt everyone else in the process."~ Sadie Taylor has been back in her hometown for 6 short months. After leaving 11 years ago, it's fair to say that her life now is a 180 spin on the free innocent teenager she left as. With her 9 year old daughter, Hallie, in toe, Sadie needs to find a new kind of normality where se can release the reins of control and learn to let go a little. She's more than happy taking things at her own pace. Hoping that if she moves slow enough, she can keep her and her daughter in their own little bubble that has kept them safe all these years. But with the arrival of a familiar stranger arriving at Black Oak Ranch, things are set to be more complicated than she'd been counting on. Ryder Matthews fucked up and he knows it. 11 years ago, he left the love of his lie in some pre-college life freak out and when he returned 3 years later, she was gone. After spending the better part of 14 months travelling the world in hopes of finding some kind of meaning to life outside of the little town where every turn is a burning memory of Sadie, he returns with no hope. He's stuck to deal with his consequences. A week after his return home, Ryder heads to Jack Taylor's ranch to get his old farm hand job back. When he steps out of the car, a 9 year old girl greets him and when her mom comes to see what the fuss is all about, he's met with the last person he thought he'd ever see back in Alcombey. Let alone with a child. Ryder and Sadie have a lot of baggage to unpack if they have any hope of being able to tolerate working together. But when his heart is still beating for her and her heart is locked behind solid concrete walls, is that even possible?
