The bestselling masters of the Great American Western deliver a thrilling new chapter in the Forever Texas sagaβas the ranch-building Royles prepare for the deadliest conflict in U.S. history ...
Civil War is brewing. Everything is about to change.
Based on true events.
When Regis Royle dreams, he dreams big. And since everythingβs bigger in Texas, his dream is to make the Royle Ranch the biggest cattle supplier in the country.
Problem is, the country is splitting apart, people are taking sides, and everyoneβs gearing up for a full-blown War Between the States. Regisβs kid brother, Shepley, has enlisted in the Army. His trusted foreman βBoneβ McGraw has left to rejoin the Texas Rangers. And the rail lines have been rerouted for the war effort. Which means Regis has to transport his cows the hard way: a cattle drive ...
This will be one hellish journey heβll never forget. If he survives.
With only a skeleton crew of ranch hands, Regis takes the lead to drive the cattle northwardβfacing more perils than he ever imagined. He and his men are attacked by a brutal, thieving band of Apache, Comanche, Kiowa, and half-breeds.
Theyβre plagued by violent storms, relentless heat, stampeding herds, and poisonous snakes. When Regis gets separated from his men, he fears heβs reached the end of the line. But giving up is not an option.
A Texan knows he has to keep fightingβeven in Americaβs darkest hourβto keep the dream alive ...
