BEEF JERKY
Praise for ACROSS THE SWEET GRASS HILLS:
“
With three-dimensional characters and passion for her story, Gail Jenner
authentically recreates the raw and rugged world of Montana in the late 1800s.”
~
Jane Kirkpatrick, ALL TOGETHER IN ONE PLACE
“The words she has written sing, her research is extraordinary, and the plot
mesmerizes.”
~Vella Munn, BLACKFEET SEASON
“Set against an authentic background, written by an author with the soul of a poet,
this debut historical romance speaks, in a lyrical voice, of a love that transcends the hate,
fear, and ugliness of the bloody cultural clash between white and Native Americans in the
1
860s and 1870s.”

Patricia Lucas White, P.S., I’VE TAKEN A LOVER
Excerpt from ACROSS THE SWEET GRASS HILLS:
RedEagle extended the butt end of his knife, teasing her with flashing eyes. Liza
took the knife, turning it in her hands. It was made of horn, perhaps elk or deer. The blade
was broad, sharp, and deadly. For a moment, she wondered if Red Eagle had ever used it
on a man. Stifling the thought, she knelt beside him, eyes averted. She didn’t want to look
into this man’s eyes; they seemed to look through her, and she feared Red Eagle would
see the apprehension and anxiety in her face. Liza timidly reached for the slab of red
meat, grimacing at the blood that ran down her fingers. ‘Do what I do, Liza,’ he
instructed quietly, attention diverted by the way she’d begun cutting the meat. Liza
frowned, seeing that her slices of jerky meat were thick, not thin. But she would learn all
that this half-breed could teach her. Having always relied on her father and brothers, she
now had to rely on herself.
