Welcome to the Jailhouse Saloon! The Jailhouse is not your run-of-the-mill watering hole! In fact, it might be the only one of its kind! Here everyone is welcome, so long as you have manners and follow the rules. Rule 1: Be polite and don't start any fights. The staff and other patrons are not here to be your servants or put up with your problems. Rule 2: If you can't follow Rule Number 1, you will be removed from the building, courtesy of the Marshal, his deputies, or the proprietors. "That girl is like a shot of good whiskey: She'll go down smooth, but if you get too much of her attention she'll knock you on your face." Whiskey Clipper is the bartender, almost partner, and peacekeeper for The Jailhouse. She grew up behind a bar and that's where she plans to stay. Her job is to make sure everyone has a good time at the Jailhouse, even if it means throwing out people twice her size. She can whip just about anything on two legs in a fistfight, she can draw and shoot better than the Marshal, and she's pretty to boot. No one messes with Whiskey. Price Montgomery rode into town as a hired gun for the local cattle baron. He met the fiery bartender named Whiskey within minutes after he arrived. Sparks flew, but Whiskey refuses to like any man who works for Abner Baker, the man who is taking over the country with his guns for hire and high and mighty ways. Price has only ever been loyal to the money he is paid until he meets Whiskey who is no fan of gunhands. The beautiful, independent woman makes him stop and think, as does the stark realization that the men he has been hired to kill are not the true problem. Price's decision to quit the job and join Whiskey and her friends, the farmers and ranchers that Baker despises, does not sit well with the big cattleman. This leads to leads more trouble, with Whiskey and Price caught in the crosshairs. Bullets are flying and whiskey gets spilled in this first tale about the Jailhouse Saloon.

Jessie White stands out from the crowd. As a Southern woman, she defies the typical expectations. While others her age are embarking on new careers, Jessie's upbringing on a ranch alongside four brothers equipped her with skills many would balk at. She's adept at horseback riding, calving, stall cleaning, and more. Fiercely independent, Jessie refuses to rely on any man, a resolve hardened after heartbreak at the hands of Max Lane, a rancher's son, two years prior. Jessie has resolved to take up bull riding, a skill that appears to be a family legacy. Her lifelong dream has been to ride a bull before an audience, but now, her ambition has shifted to rescuing the White Family Ranch after a substantial portion of their funds vanished and debts began accumulating. Max Lane's family is eager to buy the White Family Ranch, but Jessie refuses to let him take away the one thing that sustains her. Being a beauty bartender owner and a female bull rider makes things challenging. Everyone says she can't do it because she's a woman, but Jessie is determined to prove them all wrong. Initially skeptical, Trace Black doesn't recognize her potential until he witnesses her mount a bull for the first time. Although he may appear arrogant externally, that pales in comparison to his internal complexity. Trace and Jessie are initially oblivious to their chemistry, though it's evident to everyone around them. As Jessie gathers the courage to express her feelings to Trace, the things she dreads occur. However, it doesn't make matters worse; it alters everything profoundly. *WARNING* Book contains language, child loss, trauma, etc. Thank you for choosing my story!
