She Staked a Claim on His Land,
So He Decided to Stake a Claim on Her Heart

Caroline Adams returns to Indian Territory after tiring of confining society life. She wants adventure, and when she and her friend Amber come across swaggering outlaw Frisco Smith, his dreams for the new territory are very persuasive. With the much-anticipated land run about to happen, she may just join the rush.

Growing up an orphan, all Frisco Smith wanted was a place to call his own. It's no wonder he fought to open the Unassigned Lands to people with the same longing. After years of sneaking across the border, he's even managed to build a dugout house on a hidden piece of property he's poised to claim.

But when the gun sounds, everyone's best plans are thrown out the window in the chaos of the run. Caroline and Frisco find themselves battling over a claim--and both dig in their heels. Settling the rightful ownership will bring these two closer than they ever expected and change their ideas of what a true home looks like.

"Jennings returns to 1889 Oklahoma Territory in this excellent third installment to the Fort Reno series. . . . Fans of Tracie Peterson will enjoy Jennings's fine romance that mines the adventure and challenges of life in the Old West."--Publishers Weekly

"Caroline is a trademark Jennings protagonist: spunky and bold as she unapologetically stands up for herself. Set on the precipice of the 1889 Land Run to the Unassigned Lands, The Major's Daughter sweeps readers into the chaos of the land-run madness with incredible detail and excitement. The rush of dreams energizes Caroline and Frisco's firecracker romance, which stays bright in spite of their challenging each other at every turn."--Booklist starred review
