In the unforgiving world of the American West, survival often depends on more than just grit and determination—it takes a steady hand, a sharp mind, and sometimes, a gun for hire. The Guns for Hire series brings together stories of ten men whose lives have been shaped by the weight of their revolvers and the choices they’ve made on both sides of the law. Each book explores the struggles, loyalties, and unexpected turns that come with living by the gun, weaving together tales of danger, redemption, and the hope for something more than a life on the run. Whether they’re seeking justice, running from their pasts, or searching for a place to call home, these men must confront the true cost of their reputations—and discover if there’s room for love and forgiveness in a world built on survival.

Shad: Book 7
A bounty hunter with nothing left to lose. A wounded woman with everything at stake. Can love survive when danger rides with every shadow?
Shad Stone’s dreams of owning a ranch are shattered when his uncle’s reckless actions wipe out his savings. Now, Shad is determined to capture a high-value outlaw to rebuild his future—even if it means facing a ruthless criminal protected by a dozen gunfighters and a corrupt lawman. But fate intervenes when a storm drives Shad to shelter in a cave, where he finds Avonleigh Adams, badly injured and on the run from the very man Shad is hunting.
Avonleigh’s family has lost everything to the outlaw who stole their ranch and shot her father. Though Shad knows rescuing her will complicate his mission, he can’t abandon a woman in need. As they join forces against overwhelming odds, Shad must decide if he can trust Avonleigh—and if he dares to open his heart again.
Can one man stand against a gang of killers? And can the woman he saves teach him that sometimes, the greatest reward is love?
