Description: "Playing cards with a whiskey trader in the wilds of Texas, John Slocum wins a white woman a bet. Until recently, she was a captive of the Comanche, and traumatized into silence. But after a little kindness on Slocum's part, she expresses her gratitude with physical enthusiasm that's louder than words. Her name is Juliana, and it turns out she's a victim of her husband's greed. Job Toby had his wife abducted, hoping she'd be declared dead so he could inherit her cattle ranch. Now, Job knows Juliana is alive and plans to end his marriage once and for all--unaware of just how far Slocum is willing to go to protect her assets."--P. [4] of cover.
