Tough in the saddle

"Boyd Reynolds rode into town after three years of wandering, happy at the thought of seeing his ranch again - and Ellen Petrie. But Jud Laws and his hired killers had taken over, ruthlessly annexing ranches to his already enormous holdings, stealing cattle, and getting a stranglehold on the law. And Ellen? Even she was Laws' property, basking in the reflected glory of the violent man's power."--Publisher's description.
