Ben Savage, Saloon Ranger Series : Titles in Order

Book 3
The bestselling Johnstones serve up the third breakneck shoot-em-up featuring Ben Savage, a former Texas Ranger-turned bar owner in the rough and tough town of Buzzard’s Bluff….

Running a small town saloon is no easy task, even for a former Texas Ranger like Ben Savage. A lot of men get mean after a few shots of hooch. Some get violent. Others get revenge—bloody, bloody revenge.

SLAUGHTERDAY NIGHT
 
There’s a new stranger in town, and he goes by the name of Lucas Blaine. Some folks say he’s the fastest gun in the West. But Ben Savage don’t put much stock in what folks say—until the killing starts. So far, Blaine has his sights set on just one target: a pretty widow who’s staying with the wife of a Baptist preacher. No one knows what the connection is between the two, but the local sheriff isn’t taking any chances. In the past, he’s relied on Ben Savage to help keep Wolf Creek from becoming target practice for gunslingers. But this time, a woman is involved. And the gunslinger’s about to turn Wolf Creek into a slaughterhouse…
 
JOHNSTONE COUNTRY. ALL SHOTS ON THE HOUSE.
 
Book 2
The bestselling Johnstones deliver their second book featuring Ben Savage, a former Texas Ranger-turned bar owner in the rough and tough town of Buzzard’s Bluff. The Texas Rose Saloon has a reputation for attracting the wildest characters the Wild West has to offer. But there’s a new owner in town, and when a former lawman like Ben Savage is at the bar, there are two kinds of shots on order: the kind that come from a bottle of whiskey…and the kind that come from the barrel of his gun.

At the Lost Coyote Saloon, you can bet your bottom dollar that some lowlife will try to cheat you, beat you, or defeat you. But bar owner Ben Savage won’t let a few bad customers ruin a good time. And he’s got the guns to prove it . . .

JOHNSTONE COUNTRY. HOTTER THAN HADES.

DRINK WITH THE DEVIL

Located in the bullet-riddled heart of Texas, the Lost Coyote Saloon in the town of Buzzard’s Bluff, is a magnet for drifters, grifters, and outlaws on the run. That’s why the bar’s manager, the beautiful Rachel Baskin, is glad the new owner is Ben Savage. A former Texas Ranger with a fast draw and low threshold for trouble, Savage knows how to keep the peace. But when  notorious hellraiser Malcolm Hazzard is released from prison—and heading to Buzzard’s Bluff to kill the local sheriff—the whole town knows the lawman doesn’t have a prayer. There’s only one way to stop a devil like Hazzard. It’s hard. It’s mean. And it’s Savage . . .
Book 1
JOHNSTONE COUNTRY. WILDER THAN EVER.

Welcome to the Lost Coyote Saloon. Saddle up to the bar and order a whiskey. Play a few hands of poker. But don’t make any trouble. The new owner is savage. Ben Savage. Once a Texas Ranger, he’s always cocked and ready for some fool to come looking for payback . . .

EAT, DRINK, AND BE WARY

When Ben Savage receives a telegram informing him that an old friend died—and left him his saloon—he’s not sure what to think. Western saloons are as wild as it gets, full of rowdy ranchers and cocky cowboys, high-stakes gamblers and low-life drifters, hard liquor and easy women. Then there’s the occasional outlaw gang. But when Savage travels to Buzzard’s Bluff, Texas, to check out his inheritance, he meets the saloon’s lovely manager, Rachel Baskin, and has a change of heart. As an experienced lawman, he figures he can run a decent establishment. Keep things friendly, peaceful, and orderly. There’s just one problem: a rival saloon owner wants Savage out of the way so he can control all the vice in town. And some of his men are bound to turn up in his saloon—thirsty for whiskey . . . and killing . . .
