Guns along the Brazos

"Cora Royal was a tempestuous beauty with a daring plan to annex the richest lands of Texas for her very own - a plan to set up and rule the sovereign state of Royal. She was a ruthless woman with a big dream and a private army of cutthroats to make that dream a reality. She might have succeeded if he had not come back: Major John Royal, late of the Texas Sixth army. Major John Royal, her husband, the man who returned home from a Mexican prison to settle the score with the wife who had betrayed him."--Publisher description.
