Audra becomes smitten with a newcomer to Stockton, a transplanted Virginian who helps with her project to rehabilitate one of the orphanage buildings, but Jarrod realizes he knew Luther Madison during the war – when as an army intelligence officer, he pulled a sting on the man.

"You're gonna have to shoot through me to get to him, Jarrod." Nick Barkley (Days of Wrath) FORMER TITLE: NIGHTS OF DESOLATION

One of the Barkleys and a friend are running from the law. Question is...who's really the guilty party? Rated T to be safe. Rating and Genre always subject to change.

A 'what if' from "My Son, My Son". What if Heath did get shot a few inches over? Will Nick learn to love this new brother? And if he does will he get the chance to tell him? Or will it be to late? Rated K plus for tragic circumstances.

Here is the Finale of the story of Nick and Jennie. Married with twin boys, everything is just perfect...or is it? Please note that Chapter 5 is called 5A (Ft Bragg) something went amiss when I uploaded. An old face resurfaces to go after Nick. Character death. Mostly Nick centered; but the rest of the family plays into the story.

Jarrod has a double. He's a con man and a thief, and the Barkleys get an unwanted houseguest.

This is a Fan Fiction based off my favorite attorney from the show Big Valley.

This is a mix of canon and AU of Heath's arrival/acceptance on the ranch. Tom has been dead for 3 years, Leah for 2 months. Jarrod is 30, Nick 26, Eugene 23, Heath 20, and Audra is 18. Heath has been on the ranch for about a month and a half. All characters are present.

Sequel to "Thanksgiving". Audra rescued and rehabilitated Nox, a starved, traumatized horse. She learns in the process that Nox is a valuable stolen purebred mare, beloved by a young couple who went missing when they were ambushed by horse thieves. She and Heath set out with Rivka and Marshal Smith in hopes of finding the couple alive and reuniting them with their horse.

AU - MAJOR CHARACTER DEATH I found when I wrote "Loving Beth" that I liked her so much I couldn't help thinking about what would happen to her "if". In this AU, Cass Hyatt doesn't kill Beth – he kills Jarrod.

Jarrod watches the rain and wonders when his father will come home.

This is Jarrod's and Beth's love story. We know how it ends, so keep the tissue handy, but I always thought we needed to know Beth better, so I gave it a try.

"Once, when Nick was sixteen years old, he got trapped in a mine shaft. I was up in San Francisco studying law. I woke up in the middle of the night and I started riding, and I didn't stop riding until I got home. Nobody had to tell me my brother was in trouble. I just knew it." Jarrod Barkley (Night of the Wolf)

This is a sequel to "Trailmarkers", though I'm aiming for this to stand on its own. Victoria is worried about Heath, who's finally home after several traumatic and violent months in a Nevada prison. She calls upon U.S. Marshal John Smith for help.

Follow-up to "Night of the Wolf." When he was bitten, Nick left home to spare the family watching him die of rabies and to make his life count, but there was a more primal motive in Nick's leaving, too, one that might have been the hardest to face up to once he got home again.

While suffering a serious fever, Jarrod stops breathing. There are complications after he recovers but it starts to look like they're not really bad ones at all.

The Barkleys will never be the same. Warning: Major Character Death.

Tag to "The Iron Box" At the end of "The Iron Box" Jarrod rode in with the judge and doctor to rescue his brothers. Heath had been tortured physically, Nick mentally. There was no more evidence of wrongdoing than the family's word. What happened between the final scene of the plot and the epilogue?

I previously posted Chapter 1 as a separate story called "What Mothers Know." I am including it here because it leads into the story of Heath's legally taking the Barkley name and becoming Victoria's adopted son.

Jarrod's new client is Nick's first love, come back to Stockton out of the blue after leaving him six years earlier. Nick is none too happy when he finds out why she left him.

An AU story in which some major canon facts have been changed. So, if you don't like canan facts being played with...don't read this. Rated T to be safe. I've only listed Jarrod and Heath...only all the Barkelys will be in the story sooner or later. Genre always subject to change.

At the end of "The Haunted Gun," Senator Jud Robson was killed by his aide, Salazar, to keep him from killing Jarrod. But when they return to Stockton, Salazar tells everyone that an unknown assassin killed Robson, and politics fight with the truth.

After Julia Saxon leaves Stockton, Jarrod decides it's time to tell his brothers what happened in Washington during the war. Follows "They Called Her Delilah."

A patient that Jarrod knew in passing at the Insane Asylum has died, and when he tells the family about it, Heath realizes he might have known her once too - and did not treat her very well. Together, they go to Strawberry, looking for who she was and what happened to her. Inspired by a song by Steve Goodman. Follows my story "Asylum."

It's the Barkleys' first Christmas after Tom's death. While Audra is hoping for a big miracle, small ones happen.
