Send this ebook. No need to worry about postage, wrapping, or shipping delays. Just push a button or two. smashwords.com\/books\/view\/752509\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdventure for the boys (and men):\u003cbr\u003eSnakeskin McMurtry had two six-guns, a lever action Winchester, and a long-range Whitworth rifle. He had put his life on the line dozens of times to get his ranch and no man was going to take it away from him. Not by a jugful. Yeah, and no woman was either. No matter how he felt about her.\u003cbr\u003eA rip-roaring western full of action and adventure, gunfights, and hair-breadth escapes, cowboys and Indians, love and romance along with Doc Holliday, Butch Cassidy, Stinky David, Pine Cone Ray, and Johnny-Behind-the-Rock.\u003cbr\u003eIf you like westerns, thrillers, hard men, beautiful women, the smell of gunsmoke, and even some humor, this is the book for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRomance for the girls:\u003cbr\u003eAnnawest looked up at the beautiful moonrise and wept. She had finally found the man who could be hers for life. But Oh! She was afraid to love him. Every time she gave her heart to someone, that man was killed. This handsome, brave, and loving man she had just met had been a bounty hunter. If his past caught up with him, her heart would be broken again. Dare she risk it? Dare she take a chance? She didn’t want to live life as an old maid with a heart as dry and bitter as an alkali desert. But how could she bear weeping again over the body of a man she loved. Whatever was she to do? (She gets it figured out. Pretty much.)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd for the thinking man and woman:\u003cbr\u003eHere’s what a highly intellectual reviewer might say, maybe: “Just when you thought the western clichés could not be avoided in another way, along comes this first novel by ‘Buck Immov”. (We suspect a pen name, here.) Here we have a man (a deadly gunfighter, needless to say) who occasionally thinks his way out of trouble (!). Not only that he really suffers when he kills somebody. His post-traumatic stress is bad enough to be terminal. Who can save him? Actually, it is usually the girl who saves him; a nice change, though he is never tied to the railroad tracks. Not only that, but ‘Buck’ has actually done his research (!). From the Timber and Stone act, to the Hagarman tunnel, to the capacities of the Whitworth rifle, and the facial expressions of horses, he remains, accurate.\u003cbr\u003eThis western version of the Canterbury Tales takes us to the Old West, the Old South, and the old St. Louis social scene. There is authentic western dialog, believable emotions (Surely the girl would object to her chosen one getting into gunfights.), ingenious plotting, clear narrative, and humor. We pronounce this novel ‘highly readable’. We have spoken.”\u003cbr\u003eFinally:\u003cbr\u003eI have been told that my book is ‘highly entertaining’ by those who know books. I surely have had a lot of fun writing it. I hope and expect you will have fun reading it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Buck Immov","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47083126292720,"sku":"2940154582732","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940154582732_p0.jpg?v=1764071535","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940154582732","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
