Horse Ranger

May 1865. The Civil War ends at Palmito Ranch, but peace is nowhere in sight. A wounded Confederate lieutenant, a teenage gunslinger, and a warhorse with the wit of a frontier philosopher are about to cross paths in a land still bleeding from its wounds.

Lance Jacobs wakes to find his leg shattered and his heart stolen by Emma Watson, the Black nurse who saved his life. Their love is as dangerous as it is unstoppable. Matt Hudson, seventeen, rides a thousand miles to avenge his brother's death—never suspecting the truth will change him forever. And Light, Lance's loyal warhorse, wanders the borderlands, telling the tale with sharp humor, fierce loyalty, and a mirror held up to the human spirit.

From the chaos of war's end to the promise and peril of the Western frontier, Horse Ranger blends romance, revenge, and a one-of-a-kind animal narrator. A fresh, fearless Western that dares to see the frontier—and the nation's soul—through different eyes.
