Praise for Tough Luck "Another treat from Sandra Dallas, Tough Luck is a lighthearted story filled with adventure. I loved the tender hearted and quirky characters and I only hated that the story had to end." -- Kathleen Grissom, New York Times bestselling author of The Kitchen House and Crow Mary "Fourteen year-old Haidie is smarter than the men in her life, and she'll need every ounce of her wit and grit if she is to deliver her little brother Boots to the father who abandoned their family for the promise of gold. On prose that rides west at an easy canter, Tough Luck keeps its reader tight to the stirrups." -- John Larison, author of Whiskey When We're Dry Praise for Where Coyotes Howl "Rich character development and memorable secondary plotlines." -- The Denver Post "A poignant love story that brings to life both the brutality and the beauty during the turn of the century in the rugged, American West." -- Lee Woodruff "Dallas' blunt, brutal latest explores the mythic soul of the American West...through a female lens." -- Booklist (Starred Review) "Immersive... Well-rounded characters, convincing period details, and a sumptuous setting make this sing. Readers will be hooked." -- Publisher's Weekly, Praise for Tough Luck "Sandra Dallas's tongue-in-cheek adventure is a gem." -- Roundup Magazine/Western Writers of America "Calling your novel an homage to True Grit is bold, but Dallas' work will humble the naysayers. Haidie Richards is every bit as smart, funny, capable, and cunning as True Grit's Mattie Ross... A rollicking western with an unforgettable heroine." -- Booklist "Haidie, a self-confessed liar and sharp judge of character, is an entertaining narrator, and Dallas keeps the story moving at a brisk trot. Readers in the mood for an old-fashioned western need look no further." -- Publishers Weekly "Full of humor, heart, and hope, this novel is a delight." -- Library Journal , Starred review "Another treat from Sandra Dallas, Tough Luck is a lighthearted story filled with adventure. I loved the tender hearted and quirky characters and I only hated that the story had to end." -- Kathleen Grissom, New York Times bestselling author of The Kitchen House and Crow Mary "Fourteen year-old Haidie is smarter than the men in her life, and she'll need every ounce of her wit and grit if she is to deliver her little brother Boots to the father who abandoned their family for the promise of gold. On prose that rides west at an easy canter, Tough Luck keeps its reader tight to the stirrups." -- John Larison, author of Whiskey When We're Dry "Haidie's unforgettable voice carries the reader along on a perilous adventure through Civil War-era America, into the untamed West, in search of Haidie's absent father. A vibrant cast of characters--muleskinners and thieves, gamblers and fallen women--lace the story with atmosphere and charm. Fans of Charles Portis and Elmore Leonard will love Tough Luck" -- Olivia Hawker, Washington Post bestselling author Praise for Where Coyotes Howl "Rich character development and memorable secondary plotlines." -- The Denver Post "A poignant love story that brings to life both the brutality and the beauty during the turn of the century in the rugged, American West." -- Lee Woodruff "Dallas' blunt, brutal latest explores the mythic soul of the American West...through a female lens." -- Booklist (Starred Review) "Immersive...

Synopsis
In this homage to True Grit , a young woman makes a perilous journey west in 1863 in search of her gold-mining father. After their mother dies, Haidie Richards and her younger brother, Boots, are put to work in an orphanage. Their father left four years earlier to find a gold mine in Colorado Territory, and since then he's sent only three letters. Still, Haidie is certain that he is alive, has struck gold, and will soon send for them. But patience is not one of Haidie's virtues, and soon she and her brother make a break for it. Boots and Haidie, disguised as a boy, embark on a dangerous journey deep into Western territory. Along the way, Haidie learns fast not only how to handle mules, oxen, and greedy men, but also that you are better off in a community. Hers includes a card shark, independent "spinster" sisters, and a very fierce dog. Once she arrives in Colorado and finds out the truth about her father, Haidie will need all her new friends for a get-even plot worthy of The Sting . Filled with vivid period detail, colorful characters, and the irreverent voice of our scrappy heroine, Tough Luck celebrates both the tenacity of youth and the persistence of the heart in the great American West.
