Iron Cowboy (Silhouette Desire) 24 reviews Diana Palmer
Silhouette, 2008

Unforgiven 270 reviews Clint Eastwood, Gene Hackman
Warner Home Video, 1997
There is nothing to forgive; everything is pitch-perfect...
+ yummy junk food - enjoy! + Border Wars come to Wyoming
It's really no wonder it's taken me this long to finally see `Unforgiven'. I've stated before that westerns were never really my thing, and it's not like Eastwood has a huge draw on me either. He's serviceable at best in my opinion, only on rare occasions having his overly gruff mannerisms pay ...

George and Lennie are two workers that move from job to job. George is small and ...

Riders of the Purple Sage 2 reviews Zane Grey
Forge Books, 2006
Zane Grey's best
+ Riders of rhe Purple Sage
Of all the zane Grey classics, this is one of his best. Lassiter, the gunman, up against the Mormon power in Utah, complete with a hidden valley, thoroughbred horses, and plenty of bad guys. Adventure/romance has survived the years to remain a classic.
