"Socially relevant, smart and witty." -Anne Schroeder, bestselling author and Will Rogers Gold Medallion Award Winner

The desert is breathtaking, its way is hard.
Grit by grit, Cora learns to survive, and meets helpful strangers. But she also tangles with mustang poachers, battles a would-be rapist, and faces blow back for her stubborn pride.
And why does that hunky Indian cowboy keep showing up?
