  PENNINGTON FAMILY SERIES
  A JILTED BRIDE...
  A DUEL AT DAWN...
  A LONG-HIDDEN SECRET...
  A SECOND CHANCE AT LOVE...
   
  Lady Josephine Pennington was jilted by her fiancé once rumors spread about her questionable origins. Her adoptive parents have always provided her with the love and protection she's needed to feel secure, and over the last sixteen years she's molded herself to meet the expectations of others. When she receives a package from the Highlands containing sketches where the subject is eerily familiar, Jo believes she might have found a clue to the identity of her birth mother.
  When Captain Wynne Melfort ended his engagement to Jo Pennington sixteen years ago, he never imagined he would see her again. But after he uncovers information that could reveal the truth about Jo's parentage, Wynne feels bound by duty to right an old wrong and inform her of his find. But he never expected feelings long thought dead to resurface.
  Jo must learn how to trust Wynn as they strive to unravel the mystery of her birth. But forces emerge that will stop at nothing to keep her from uncovering the truth and reclaiming her legacy. Together, she and Wynne must overcome their past and fight a deadly menace lurking deep in the Highland mists.

  In the heat of the southwest, desire is the kindling for two lost souls—and the flame of passion threatens to consume them both. 
  Rosie Saladay needs to get married—fast. The young widow needs help to protect her late husband's ranch, but no decent woman can live alone with a hired hand. With the wealthy Wesley Morris making a play for her land, Rosie needs a husband or she risks losing everything. So she hangs a sign at the local saloon: "Husband wanted. Apply inside. No conjugal rights."Delmar Grant is a sucker for a damsel in distress, and even with Rosie's restrictions on "boots under her bed" stated firmly in black and white, something about the lovely widow's plea leaves him unable to turn away her proposal of marriage. 
  Though neither planned on falling in love, passion ignites between the unlikely couple. But their buried secrets—and enemies with both greed and a grudge—threaten to tear them apart. They'll discover this marriage of convenience may cost them more than they could have ever bargained for.

  American Whoreson. At 47k words, it reads quickly and is suitable for teens and older. While it contains no sex and only minimal violence, it does have politically sensitive subject matter. Therefore, it is not suitable for Trumpists or Evangelicals. 
  America in the late 1800s was a place where a young man with drive and intelligence could rise above class to attain power and wealth. Even someone born near the bottom of society’s social ladder could climb past those born higher on the ladder to achieve greatness. Armed only with his intelligence, aggressive personality, and fists, the bastard son of a whore grows up in a town dominated by cotton mills to find his place in America’s westward-looking Manifest Destiny. 
  The bastard son of a whore working in a small town dominated by cotton mills, Tobias is tossed out on his own at the age of twelve when his mother is shot by rival clients who also die in the exchange. Even though he witnesses her death, he is too occupied with his survival to spend much time grieving. The death of one of the men responsible for his mother’s death creates a job opening for Tobias at the mill, and Tobias jumps into the opportunity to secure his future, at least for now. 
  Two years later, Tobias escapes the mill as it burns down. He rides a short train of boxcars full of finished fabric away from the burning mill to safety. A locomotive collects the boxcars and deposits them in a railyard near the port of Norfolk. He escapes the yard and takes refuge in an abandoned boxcar. While there, he comforts a pregnant negro girl about to give birth and helps inter her body when she dies in childbirth. 
  He is transferred as a civilian contractor assigned to the Quartermaster Corps at Fort Meade, near Sturgis, South Dakota. While there, he witnesses what happens to people who stand in the way of America’s Manifest Destiny.
