The Marines are taking small steps toward opening all of their combat military occupational specialties to Women Marines. Abby Cassidy has a lifelong dream of serving in the Marine Corps. She is a sharpshooter of exceptional quality. A concept and a desire are on converging courses. Ryder Myles was a victim of illicit drug abuse. He grew up in Texas foster homes. As an adult, in California, he is on the road to overcoming his childhood misfortunes. His buddy, Butch Finette, another casualty of the drug culture, isn't fairing as well. Misplaced loyalties have their consequences. Bernard "Barney" Mason was a Marine Sniper during the Vietnam War. These days, he teaches long range rifle shooting to law enforcement personnel. Flora Denton is a former Chicago gang member. As a Marine, she has learned the difference between street toughness and esprit de corps. Austin, Texas, isn't what it used to be when Sergeant Henry Cassidy joined the police force. Nothing stays the same for forever. Dodging the highway patrol is crucial to the success of transporting illegal narcotics. "Don't mess with Texas" is more than a slogan. Dustin Harrigan is a cowboy and a Texas Highway Patrol Trooper. His toughest rodeo starts with a routine traffic encounter. North Texas bears witness to an old battleground where buffalo hunters and Indians clashed in 1874. A modern-day showdown is in the making. Did I neglect to mention romance? It's all here. I hope you enjoy my second book, Long Shot.
