Synopsis

On the Wyoming frontier, a spunky woman proves courage can outlast danger and doubt.

June Tolliver grows up amid rough memories, hard work, and a future she won't back down from. In a rugged landscape of cattle, loyalties, and rough men, she faces schemes and threats with resolve that earns respect and fear in equal measure. This edition follows a widow’s daughter as she navigates family ties, a volatile past, and a life shaped by the men who ride the range.

Across a world of dust, storms, and sudden violence, the book blends frontier hardship with a steadfast spirit and a quiet, growing courage that helps June hold her ground—and find a path forward with a young ranch hand who shares her sense of belonging and duty.

• Meet a heroine who stands her ground in a rough, male-dominated world.
• Experience frontier life on the range, with cattle drives, brawls, and loyalties tested.
• Feel the pull of family, honor, and a romance that blooms amid danger.
• Follow a story of resilience, grit, and the fight to shape a own future.

Ideal for fans of frontier tales of courage, loyalty, and a woman who won’t back down.

It caught in a spotlight the cheap, dingy gown, the coarse stockings through the holes of which white flesh peeped, the heavy, broken brogans that disfigured the feet. It beat upon a small head with a mass of black, wild-flying hair, on red lips curved with discontent, into dark eyes passionate and resentful at what fate had made of her young life. A silent, sullen lass, one might have guessed, and the judgment would have been true as most first impressions. The girl watched her father drive half a dozen dogies into the mountain corral perched precariously on the hillside. Soon now it would be dusk. She went back into the cabin and began to prepare supper. In the rickety stove she made a fire of cottonwood. There was a business-like efi Sciency in the way she peeled potatoes, prepared the venison for the fryingpan, and mixed the biscuit dough. June Tolliver and her father lived alone on Piceance Creek. Their nearest neighbor was a trapper on Eighteen-M ile Hill. From one months end to another she did Fro Bouaced Pee-ance.
