Book excerpt: Janet Dailey's iconic Calder Saga is synonymous with everything readers have come to love in her novels: romance, adventure, and the epic mystique of the Old West. Now America's First Lady of Romance invites readers on a new journey with the first installment in a Calder series spin-off beginning in the late 1800s, as a cowboy named Joe Dollarhide joins the Calder family on one of the first cattle drives from Texas to Montana... The Calder family patriarch is known throughout Montana as a force no one in his right mind would cross. But sometimes love can make a man do crazy things... Ambition drove Joe Dollarhide across the parched plains from Fort Sam Houston to Dodge City. He was determined to one day have a spread every bit as impressive as his employer's. But when a wild stampede separates him from the cattle drive, it's not just survival that keeps him going. Joe has a burning need to settle the score with Benteen Calder, the cattle boss he used to worship. The man who'd left him for dead. Yet he'd soon have something greater than revenge to inspire him... Sarah Foxworth is traveling toward her dream of becoming a doctor when she's attacked by a violent gang. Luckily, Joe is the one to rescue her--and win her heart. Still, she presses on to the future awaiting her on the frontier. But her plans, and her reputation, are ruined when she gives birth to an illegitimate baby... Years later, Sarah reappears in Joe's world--with a son there's no denying is his own. Now a prosperous rancher, Joe yearns to finally build a life with the woman he's never forgotten. Only Joe's own road to riches has been strewn with obstacles, some still standing in his way. But time has also shown him that nothing worth having comes easy. And that Sarah is a woman worth fighting for...
