Publisher's summary
The two men met when a local troublemaker threatened Billy because of his Southern heritage. The Colonel intervened, diffusing the situation without firing a shot.
United by their shared roots and mutual respect, the Colonel invited Billy to join him on a journey to Texas.
Their journey began in a Kansas farm community. Together, they trained the farmers to defend themselves, saving their town and livelihoods.
In Waco, they met "Miss Margaret," a ranch owner, and love blossomed between her and the Colonel. After just three months, they married.
Jim's business acumen propelled them to prominence, and by 1874, they owned one of Texas's largest ranches.
Jim formally adopted Billy, seeing him transform into a true gentleman and thoughtful leader.
"The Colonel is an epic tale of friendship, love, and resilience set against a changing United States of America.

And find the house has only one bed. Located under a mirrored ceiling.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 2,375
Romance can be a little complicated when you get sucked into a wormhole. Just ask high school English teacher June Flint. One little solar flare happens and suddenly you find yourself 85 years in the future. Eighty-five years from your dream job. Your ailing mother whose only companion in this world is you. Your favorite stuffed-crust pizza from DeLucia’s on Sunday nights. But when June’s cell phone inexplicably picks up a signal, she’s able to call back to the present—more specifically, four weeks before she accidentally time traveled.
