** I do plan on editing and adding (smut) to this story this summer 2026 :) Katherine Reed grew up in the west in a small, close knit town in the height of the wild west with her family, until a series of tragedies strike, leaving her the only one of her small family alive.
Jackson Walsh is a highly decorated U.S. Marshall who has brought down multiple gangs of outlaws in the wild west. When he is sent to Emerald Valley, he expects to only find gunfire, but what he isn't expecting, is to find love, especially after the brutal loss of his wife and unborn child.
Can Kate and Jackson overcome unforeseen obstacles and bullets to find their happy ever after?

The Last Draw
An outlaw love story with bite. Cassidy "Copper" Lane doesn't do trust, not after what the world's taken from her. She rides solo, shoots straight, and keeps her scars where everyone can see them-so no one dares get close. Then Arthur Morgan shows up. Van der Linde gang enforcer. Too serious. Too smart. And way too good at peeling back the walls she spent years building. Thrown together by bad luck and worse timing, Cassidy and Arthur navigate bullets, bounty hunters, and betrayal on the fading edge of the Wild West. She's got a sharp tongue. He's got a quiet kind of storm. Together, they're either the perfect disaster or the last chance either of them has at redemption. Witty, brutal, and full of heart, The Last Draw is a gritty western romance where survival means keeping your gun loaded-and maybe, just maybe, letting someone in. Inspired by the world of Red Dead Redemption II, this gritty tale of survival, revenge, and redemption is a must-read for fans of Western epics and slow-burning romances.
