A former outlaw. A preacher’s daughter. A past that refuses to stay buried.

Cade Rawlins has survived war, bloodshed, and the outlaw trail, but he has never escaped the person he became.

When a train robbery turns brutal, Cade turns against his own gang to protect an innocent child. Beaten and left for dead, he is taken in by Baptist preacher John Bowman and his family.

There, Cade encounters something he understands far less than violence: mercy.

Through faith, love, and the hard work of an honest life, Cade begins to believe redemption may still be possible.

Ten years later, Cade has built a new life with Clara in the wild cattle country along Florida’s Peace River. He is a husband, a father, and a cattleman, with everything he once believed he could never deserve.

Then Glen Purdy rides into town.

Purdy once rode with Cade’s old gang. Now he has plans for a railroad payroll, and he wants Cade’s gun and his knowledge of the Florida country. When Cade refuses, Purdy makes it clear that walking away from the old life may not be enough to keep it from coming after his family.

Cade has spent years learning not to become what he once was.

Now he may need those old skills to protect everything he loves.

Peace River Redemption is a standalone historical Western of faith, family, violence, and second chances, set in the rugged cattle country of 1880s Florida.
