  Gideon Johann is the new sheriff of Last Stand, Colorado, hoping to put roots down in the place where he grew up. Set free from the years of running from his conscience, he still has trouble accepting that the past has forever unchained him as he navigates his romance with Abby and fatherhood with Joann while coping with a mysterious man intent on exacting revenge for Gideon’s past deeds.

  Mary, the hard–luck whore, finds her status in life changed, but not the misfortune that seems to follow her like a shadow.

  Gideon and Mary both try to escape their pasts and start new lives, but find it easier said than done as forces work to derail their paths to happiness. Purchase on Amazon: Last Chance

  Love, second chances, new beginnings, and dispensing justice – all set in the town of Last Stand, Colorado in 1880.

  Sheriff Gideon Johann has left the past behind and is enjoying his new life with his childhood sweetheart Abby. He crosses paths with a down on his luck buddy from the war and takes on the challenge of aiding Finnie in the same way that his friends did for him. In the midst of helping Finnie, a whore is murdered in Last Stand and the sheriff realizes that he has a conspiracy to solve. Gideon has his hands full as he tries to keep Finnie on the straight and narrow, solve a crime that has implications for the whole town, and help his lifelong friend, Ethan, get back on his feet.

  Mary, the former whore, is now the successful proprietor of the Last Stand Last Chance Saloon. She finds her life turned upside down when Gideon recruits her in his quest to get the charming little Irishman Finnie back on his feet.

  Gideon’s daughter, Joann, comes for a visit from the Wyoming Territory. Her brief romance with Gideon’s friend, Zack, has ended and the two young adults find their new relationship angst–filled and a comical calamity.
