Across scorching deserts and snow-capped peaks... At the age of 29, some might call Rose Collins a bible-thumping, skinny old maid. When Rose’s papa dies, his last will and testament forces her to make a dangerous cross-country journey on horseback. If she does not, she forfeits the entire estate, including the Collins ranch. Charlie Taylor is seen by most as a cutthroat drifter. His commanding officer during the war was Rose’s papa. As an experienced Army scout, Charlie has skills and talents needed for a very special task; one he feels obliged to undertake. The last wish of Colonel Collins was that Charlie escort his daughter Rose on her perilous, 1,000 mile-long journey from Santa Fe to San Francisco. Unfortunately, barren deserts and rugged mountain ranges are also where very bad men go to hide. Books in the Bullets and Doves series can be read as standalone novels, in any order.
