Saddled with Sadie: When Declan Logan came across Sadie he was frustrated at first. Having to deal with her meant he would have to postpone his search for his sister's killers but he soon found out that he was able to do both. He was already shirking his duty with The Secret Service by tracking the men who killed his sister and she added something to the dilemma that he didn't need right now. He could not leave her alone on the mountain where she would surely die and he was not even sure that they might both die, but he was determined to get the men he was after, and being saddled with Sadie was not going to stop him.
Texas Oil: Oil was something that Gil Macintosh knew little about but he did know about the law and when an unscrupulous rancher made an attack on the oil field workers he knew what he must do. Going after the man and his hired guns took a lot of nerve but he knew if he enlisted the help of the townspeople that some of them were sure to die. There was one man who he couldn't hold back and that was the man he promised the woman he loved that he would keep safe.
Hobson Springs: The hot springs of Hobson Springs had turned the dying town around and when the rich folks came to soak away their ailments they became targets for a family of misfits. When Rita McGuire got a good look at the face of the man who killed her brother she became a target as well. To her the only answer was to learn how to shoot and the best man to teach her was a man who was good with a gun. Dan Bates was reluctant, but how could he turn down such a pretty girl?
