AI-FREE! 100% certified organic author-created content. No artificial intelligence was used in the writing of this book.
These are chronicles of the Old West--of the native people who lived on the land for generations and the pioneers who came from all over the world in search of riches…the struggle to survive in a land without laws…the strange bedfellows that resulted from the clash of cultures…and the common language of the heart that spoke of a love more precious than gold.
NATIVE HAWK
When ambitious Catalina di Ferrara turns her back on her noble Italian past to pursue her dream of designing dresses in America, she quickly learns that jobs in high fashion are scarce in the mountain town of Paradise, California. Her determination to succeed, however, earns her a position--in a less-than-upstanding establishment.
For half-native twin Drew Hawk, life means a poker deck, a Colt 45, and the open road, until he crosses the wrong man and has to make a quick getaway. But he doesn't mind hiding out in Paradise, especially when he takes a gander at the beautiful and spirited Catalina working in the town's Parlor.
Cat manages to drain the handsome gambler's funds while never quite delivering the goods. But Drew is captivated by the clever lady, and it takes all of Cat's willpower to resist the gambling gunslinger's charm. When the law finally comes for him with guns blazing, will Cat risk her heart and prove to be Drew's Lady Luck?

Sensational!!
Catalina di Ferrara a privileged young Italian noblewoman has a gift for designing dresses -in secret- decided to follow in her uncles footsteps she left to follow her dream of opening her own house of fashion in the town of Paradise in California. What she never expected was that she would've a difficult time getting a room for the night let alone a job as a seamstress.
Accepting a position in a house of ill repute as a cleaning lady really wasn't how she'd dreamed her adventure as self employed couturier in the fashion industry, but dreams are attainable if you worked hard enough.
Twin Drew Hawk is a half breed and a poker player living by his wits, his best friends are his Colt 45 and a deck of cards, always a step a head he always gets the wining hand till he crossed the wrong person -the law- a series of unfortunate events have him looking over his shoulder and running straight for Paradise which in his estimation couldn't be better since his twin had unfinished business in Paradise.
What he didn't gamble on was for one spirited hot blooded young woman who stole his breath along with his heart. Catalina never expected to be under the spell of the most handsome man she's ever met and to make matters worse he wants to spend the night with her in the same bed! Will they're love be strong enough before Drew's past comes between them? Can Catalina give up her dream for a once in a lifetime love?
What an amazing story, lots of passion and action for two different people with different backgrounds and upbringing taking a chance at love not caring of social norms and acceptance . Definitely recommend this!
