The way men thought things through in those days, by just making decisions without bothering to talk it through with their women, the problems children faced when they were abandoned or abused by adults, and dangers that were commonplace in those days, especially when sick or injured. Not to mention the fact that he keeps running into women from his past, giving Caitlyn a case of jealousy.īut, the adventure takes a turn that ends up in tragedy and the lives of Caitlyn, Devon and Jake will never be the same. So, Caitlyn is often feeling betrayed by Jake. He won't think about sharing his plans, or his past, or how he intends to take down Durant. However, everything Jake does he has justified it to himself as being the right thing to do and the best thing for everyone, even Caitlyn and her brother. One minute Jake thinks he can trust Caitlyn, and then she does something that changes his mind. In the mean time Durant has picked up their trail, Devon meets a young lady and falls in love, then is arrested and in danger of being lynched. From that time on, the two argue, make accusations against each other, stick to their own agendas and continue to make love to each other every chance they get. The first time Lassiter and Caitlyn are alone together the sparks fly. The hitch is Caitlyn must stay with Durant while her brother tries to hunt down the deeds to their parent's land and mines. If they can prove Durant cheated them out of their inheritance he will help them avoid the law and seek justice. With his own agenda, he makes a deal with Caitlyn and her brother.
When Jake finally catches up to Kate, he is stunned to find that although she dresses in pants and tries to act tough, she's really a very pretty young lady that isn't nearly as hardened as she makes out. Why? Because the two witnessed him killing their parents and he must erase all witnesses to his many crimes. Durant has hired a man named Jake Lassiter to hunt down the pair and bring them to him.
