PAINTED LADIES: Forty-First in a Series of Jess Williams Westerns (A Jess Williams Western Book 41)
Jess is on the hunt for two wanted men when he runs across a wagon on the trail. Three men are being paid to escort four prostitutes to the town of Woodward. Jess immediately feels a connection to one of the women, but he doesn’t know why.
He heads to Hayden, Texas, to turn in two corpses to the law in town. He runs into an aging bounty hunter by the name of John Booth who is down on his luck and hunting a man in Hayden. Jess helps him catch his man. While he’s waiting for his bounty money, the wagon with the four women ride into Hayden to get a wheel fixed. He has supper with them and the wagon pulls out of Hayden the next day on the way to Woodward.
Jess gets paid his bounty money and leaves town, but when he hits the trail where it splits off, one going southeast and one going due east, something pulls him unwillingly toward the direction of the wagon carrying the women.
Before he knows it, he’s helping to rescue them from certain death, and one of them seems to have some mysterious effect on him. He decides to make sure they get to Woodward safely and the trip turns out to be anything but easy. He hires the aging bounty hunter Booth and a burly man by the name of Anvil to accompany him on the trip. Jess is determined to get them safely to Woodward, all the while struggling with his emotions about one of the women and trying to figure out why.
