The Beige Saddle

They couldn't have been more apart from one another. Rosemary was young, beautiful, and ambitious with aspirations to be a circus performer, while James was middle-age and kept a pistol by his hip to keep his belly full and keep his home safe from the rain and wind.
Whenever James was asked about his livelihood, he kept the listener from the truth. Banker, cook, librarian-those were professions he would claim to have had. Out of shame and survival, he would keep secret how he made his dark money. Though they had little in common, the lives of James and Rosemary would converge and often conflict, and in the end they would each learn that who they really are goes beyond judgment, and retribution isn't always the way to salvation.
The Beige Saddle is a raw and gritty Western tale set in the rugged high-plains country and the economic panic of 1850s Kansas Territory. Here we share the struggles of a man and woman resolved to make their love work and raise a family.
