Two Whoops and a Holler (Wild Hearts on the Western Frontier)

By Carmilla Deane

1875, Wyoming Territory. Harriet Jane Grant is a Black woman bounty hunter in a land that wants her dead twice over-once for the color of her skin, once for who she loves. When she takes down the Buckman gang, she earns more than the territorial bounty. She earns a chance at freedom.

But freedom costs money. With her lover Grace, a widowed white seamstress with dreams of a ranch outside Cheyenne, Harriet needs one last score to buy their future. When Sheriff Thompson offers five hundred dollars for the Heckler gang, Harriet rides out again, leaving Grace with a promise: This time, I mean it.

From the sun-scorched canyons of the Red Desert to the cells of Cheyenne, Harriet faces down outlaws, prejudice, and the brutal arithmetic of survival. But the deadliest risk she takes isn't the gunfight-it's believing she deserves a home, a woman, and a life beyond the next bounty.

A spare, violent Western featuring a protagonist who takes up space in a genre that erased her. For readers who like their historical fiction unflinching, their action precise, and their love stories earned.
