Wildcat: A Novel of the West

De: Stephen L. Brooks

Narrado por: Jennifer March

She fought rustlers, land thieves, murders, and her own heart!

Her pa taught Allison Katherine “Kat” Crandall to ride, rope, and shoot as good as any man. That's why they called her "Wildcat"! Then her pa died in what folks called an “accident”, and when she returned from his funeral, half her ranch hands up and left. Kat knew that meant her father's death was no accident but cold-blooded murder, even if she couldn't prove it - yet!

Soon her troubles really started: Rustling, stampedes, hijackings, her remaining hands attacked. If she didn't do something fast, Kat would lose everything her father had worked for.

Kit was ready to strap on her gun and shoot it out with whatever hombres were behind these doin's. But first she had to know who was behind it all, and why?

Right then a mysterious drifter who called himself "Laredo" and his two saddle pals, Banty and Bear, drifted into town. Laredo, big and handsome, with an easygoing sense of humor, said he wanted to help Kat out. Kat liked him right from the start. But from the things he said, she realized there was something mysterious about Laredo, something he was keeping from her. Something secret in his past.

Kat's heart said she could trust him, but her head said she didn't dare.

Then the attempts to drive her off the range with guns and sabotage intensified. Kat found herself riding into one of the great gun battles of the West, but was the man riding at her side true or a traitor?

Wildcat wouldn't know until the last bullet had been fired.

Wildcat is a thrilling romance of the frontier, brimming with action in the tradition of authors like Zane Grey, Max Brand, and Louis L'Amour and the classic Saturday-afternoon Western B-movies.

Frontier western

Stephen L. Books wrote an excellent frontier western romance. Jennifer March did an excellent job with the narration. The story is entertaining, interesting, and more. I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review. Highly recommend

Fun listen

It took me a bit to get into the story, but by an hour in, I was hooked. At that point, it reminded me of the old westerns I used to read, and of the old western tv shows that I grew up watching with my dad. It had just the right amount of intrigue and action, with interesting, relatable, fun characters.

A Real Western!

I really enjoyed this western and anyone can listen to it. It checked all the boxes. Jennifer March did a smashing job of narrating it!

Old Fashioned Western

A delightful retro Western read/listen with gun shooting, horse riding, bad guys in black hats and good guys in white hats. Throw a strong female protagonist, a betrayal of trust, and a little love story and you have the complete mix for an enjoyable book.

Interesting characters in a good story.

While far from feeling like an authentic western this was a quite enjoyable read, I enjoyed the characters and the story. The narration was very good.
