The Bounty

A Classic Western Adventure

A classic western novel from Frank Wheeler with non-stop epic adventure and a blend of western romance

Rayne Sutherland never set out to be a father. He was a bounty hunter, not a caretaker.
But when he found a scared, orphaned boy hiding in the shadows, he couldn’t just walk away—even if the kid was the son of a notorious killer.

Rayne did his best to raise Jeb right, teaching him to be everything his father wasn’t—sharp, strong, and honorable. But somewhere along the trail, things went wrong.
Ginny, the schoolteacher, insists it wasn’t Rayne’s fault, but doubt gnaws at him.

Now, a new bounty has surfaced...

and it’s Jeb’s name on the wanted poster.

Accused of theft and murder, Jeb has become the very thing Rayne tried to save him from. But even now, Rayne can’t turn his back.
Ginny is convinced there’s still good in Jeb, even if it means risking everything to prove it.

Together, they set out to bring him home alive, but the trail is treacherous. The whole territory wants his head, and Jeb’s gang is ready to kill anyone who gets too close.
Can they bring back the boy they once loved, or have the choices of the past already written his future?

Each novel in the series is a standalone western which can be read out of order.
