Mojave Crossing
(Unknown)

Tell Sackett was sitting pretty, with thirty pounds of gold that were mostly his. Maybe that was why when a beautiful raven-haired woman asked to ride with him to Los Angeles, he didn't care that she came with a lot of trouble. A powerful hard ride over the blistering Mojave desert was one third of the trouble. Another third was trackers out for the woman and for his blood. The last third was getting ambushed and being left without the woman, a horse, food, or his gold. Like the rest of his remarkable family, however, Tell Sackett was a survivor. He was going to get a horse and food, find the woman who had caused him so much trouble--and most importantly, get his gold back.
