Description: Married life for Tap and Pepper isn't turning out quite the way they planned. Just when Pepper thought life settled down to a normal pace, she had to prepare for a rocky ride hitched to the unpredictable Tap Andrews. The ranch is gone. They've moved to Cheyenne. And Pepper hasn't been feeling well. But at least Tap found a job as deputy that takes what he's got: integrity, nerves of steel, and a fast draw. But Tap suddenly finds himself as acting marshal in a town with little regard for the law, a test of his patience and faith. He soon discovers how hard it is to simultaneously hold off a vigilante crowd hungry for a lynching, control a wayward deputy who thinks he should be in charge, keep his pretty wife from worrying herself sicker, and uncover who's behind the trouble in Cheyenne. When the city council relieves Tap of his duties and Pepper of her worries, it's time to move on again. But Tap can't let things go.
