Book Description
A Leatherneck by any other name can still kick ass, which is just what retired United States Marine Corps Captain Tanner Wilks plans to do when he returns to his Texas family ranch to care for his ailing father. And nothing will stop him from achieving his mission—not even a lithe, brown-eyed town veterinarian who seems hell-bent on driving him wild. Captain Tanner Wilks, honorably discharged from the U.S. Marine Corps, returns home to find his father struggling after his latest heart attack. Worse yet, Julia Heller—the sexy new girl in town that he once spent a hot night with—is the resident veterinarian who’s made a home for herself at Round Top ranch, and doesn’t seem to be in a rush to repeat their time together. It falls on Tanner’s shoulders to take on the ranch and keep an eye on his father before he falls victim to another heart attack. But Julia doesn’t appreciate Tanner coming in or pursuing her. Even if he’s hot as hell and can make her quiver with just a look. Ousting her may give Tanner the leverage he needs to corral his father, but first he has to wrestle with his own heart.

Book Description
"Cowboys and Indians" is a look back into history and it explores the entire continent of America which was originally inhabited by Native Americans, none of whom had, or have ever, any familial ties to Amerigo Vespucci, the Italian explorer who was said to have discovered America. The theme throughout is the undeniable fact that the earth upon which we all live is being systematically strangled, drilled, poisoned, beaten and bartered to death. The undeniable truth shows us that the European immigrants had a philosophical difference with the Native Americans that they encountered living on the shores that they invaded and vanquished and always with the same thought in mind: to steal the land from the ignorant Indians, ignorant because they showed no knowledge of the financial worth of the land, the minerals inside of it and the animals living upon it. In "The Good Father" we see that, in fact, the Immigrants actually have (at least) one who the Indians (Native Americans) can agree with and get along with: A Jesuit Priest named Pierre DeSmet who had come to America as a missionary. The Indians did not understand why the missionaries who preached to them about a man who walked the earth many moons ago was to be revered as God when they themselves--the missionaries--did not act as they claimed their God-man had told them to. But, then, they found out that DeSmet, who all the tribes took to calling the Good Father, was not anything like the others because he did not covet land or women, or gold and silver or drink whiskey but devoted himself to spreading the gospel of peace and love and the name of Jesus Christ and his teachings. He knew the Indians believed in spirits and he preached to them about the Holy Spirit and they told him about the Great Spirit. If you enjoy historical truths seen through the eyes of both sides you will enjoy all twenty of these stories.
