BRAND CHASER

A contemporary western first and romantic suspense novel second, DARK RANGE is a haunting, lyrical book about the quest for love and belonging in a West that is as real as Kum-and-Go, flashing Coors signs, and the cow shit I suspect rimes the soles of the author’s boots. Unlike the legendary “Hapless Susan” for whom the Lost Daughter Ranch was named, our heroine is “built sturdy and solid and able to swim and take care of herself.” Emory Cross will need all those qualities to negotiate the inevitable coming change to her land and her way of life…and to her vexing attraction to the inscrutable, possibly dangerous Cade Timmons. I couldn’t put this page-turner down and that damned ending left me with a knot in my throat that’s still there. –Peter Brandvold, bestselling author of the Rogue Lawman and Yakima Henry westerns, among many others
