Publisher's Summary

The Cowans have arrived in Texas to homestead. After their dangerous trek west, they want to settle, free from worry and danger. With the help of his son, Wes, the McLeod brothers, and Pony Boy, Bruce is ready to raise his cabin.

Unfortunately for them, their troubles have just begun!

They discover that Cord McGregor, the cattle baron they had a run in with on the Santa Fe Trail, has a spread nearby. To make matters worse, the cattle ranchers are in a range war against homesteaders and sheepherders.

McGregor and the other ranchers aren't their only problem. There's a tribe of hostile Apaches nearby and the Owens gang to the north.

Caught between three different enemies, Bruce raises his log cabin, hoping his family can live in peace. It's not to be.

Amid the growing issues that threaten the lives of the settlers, Trent waits for the perfect time to ask Becky to marry him.

Forced once again to defend themselves, the McLeod brothers face their deadliest foes yet. They can't move on this time. The stakes are high. Life or death. They must protect their lives and their homestead, or die. Will they ever live in peace?
