"We could'a settled this properly. As old friends, even. But you've forced my hand once again, darlin'. And this, I cannot forgive.. or forget." Colter tells me seriously, his brow furrowing deeper.

"I wasn't countin' on it." I reply, my index finger applying pressure to the trigger of the revolver in my shaky hands. The thing explodes in my grip with a puff of gunsmoke and fire from the end of the long barrel, and a dark red spot right between his eyes begins to pour crimson fluid.

The late 1800's were rough on anyone, sure. But women have seemed to pull the short stick through the centuries. Including Evelyn.

Especially Evelyn.

After her mother was killed by Apaches outside the new town of Boulder, Evelyn was adopted by the Madame- Meredith Jones, whose reputation had spread far and wide for having the prettiest, cleanest girls a man could find west of the Mississippi River. And the men- they would come from everywhere to have a night with these girls. To Meredith, a little pain and suffering was never a deal breaker, as long as she got her percentage out of it.

The ever-growing Apache Tribe has been lurking in the pines at the edge of the town- waiting for their moment to strike.

Whilst fleeing the manor, Evelyn runs right into the Apache Chief- Mangas Coloradas- and he decides to take her prisoner. But what happens when they begin to trust one another?

Colonizers and Natives are sworn enemies. But even the deepest prejudice cannot stop what is meant to be.
