Winds Across Texas

A Comanche captive for five years, Katherine returns home to find herself shunned by her Texas town. Worse, her brother is missing. Slade is a mercenary lawman whose latest quest is Katherine’s brother, last seen with the outlaw who murdered Slade’s wife and son.

Fire Across Texas

Done with the army’s mismanagement of Indian affairs, ex-Texas Ranger Jeb sets his mind on New Mexico. At a remote homestead, he finds a woman alone with her husband’s body and blood on her clothes. She’s no murderer but she is the most stubborn woman he’s ever encountered. Hannah is determined to bring her husband’s murderers to justice. Jeb is determined to find a place to leave her—if only he can be sure she’ll be safe now that she’s under his skin.

Storm Out of Texas

Ford never expected his wife to leave him but death came and it’s time to move on. Maria is excited to return home but not to the marriage that awaits her. The rugged cowboy with a baby in his arms tugs at her heart but he’s surely married and she’s betrothed to a stranger. The perils of stagecoach travel throw them together but the trip is coming to an end. Ford hasn’t found love only to lose it again and Maria is a woman worth fighting for.

Susan Yawn Tanner didn’t plan a series when she first wrote Winds Across Texas but she fell in love with Jeb Welles. He had to have his own story and Fire Across Texas was born. When both stories were re-released by Secret Staircase Books, an imprint of Columbine Publishing, her publisher and fans wanted just one more and she obliged with Storm Out of Texas. Ms. Tanner’s Scottish Highland romances—Highland Captive, Captive to a Dream, and Exiled Heart—were also re-released by Secret Staircase Books along with the novella A Warm Southern Christmas. As Susan Y. Tanner, she blends her passion for horses with her passion for writing. Trouble in Summer Valley introduces readers to the rescue horses of Summer Valley Ranch. In Turning for Trouble, her own rodeo experience brings that rough and tumble world to life. Trouble in Action, showcases the risky profession of stunt riding while giving a glimpse into historical reenactments. A Whisper of Trouble provides insight into a talent practiced by few…the art of horse whispering. Published by KaliOka Press, these romantic mysteries are part of the Trouble Cat Detective series. When not at her desk, Ms. Tanner can usually be found in the barn or on the back of a horse.
