Rawhide Jake, a lone ranger with a tarnished reputation, battles rustlers and betrayal while wrestling with a forbidden love that could define or destroy his legacy.
Back in the day, there were plenty of Old West stories on television and in books to flood a young boy's imagination. Those fanciful memories stayed with JD (Jeff) Arnold all through his Vietnam-era military service, helicopter pilot, deputy sheriff, and death investigator time, and change of gears to a CPA. Finally, now that he's quit his day job, his daydreams came to fruition with the three-book series on Jonas V. Brighton. Jeff lives by the polo fields in Indio, California, with Diane, his wife of half a century, and Sofie, their canine love. His children and grandchildren reside in the next county over to the west.
