Last Stand at Rio Blanco Terrell L Bowers

Branded! That's what the McCains were. After the womanizing father of five boys kills an upstanding citizen, the people of Rio Blanco not only hang him, but they condemn the offspring as well. Then Trace McCain saves Melanie Kendall, the niece of the man his father killed. The sparks that fly between them are not from hate, but from a mutual affection. With an unforgiving father, the romance is doomed ... until a gang of ruthless killers come calling. Threatened with the destruction of their town, the only hope of the people in Rio Blanco hinges on the very men they have ostracized. Trace and his brother, Charo, are the best prepared fighters in the valley. But their own resentment runs deep for their treatment. If the townspeople and old man Kendall don't come to terms with the McCains, the bandit hoard known as Eller's Marauders will wipe out every man, woman and child in Rio Blanco!
