Nick finds himself giving aide to a gentleman and his grandaughter. The man once helped him during the Civil War-only thing is the man is now on the run, but not from the law. Sorry, i still stink at summaries. Don't really think it needs a T rating only-due to a small skirmish-I'm playing it safe. All Barkleys are either shown or mentioned...mostly Nick though.

1870. Devastated by his father's murder, Nick goes alone to track down the killer. Jarrod goes after him, but how can he bring Nick home when he has disappeared without a trace?

AU – Follows Making a Rancher. Although Jarrod and Nick have learned to adjust to their roles in Tom's chain of command, the railroad changes everything.

AU - The war takes Jarrod's dreams of becoming a lawyer, but will Nick sacrifice his own dreams to help his brother find a new one?

A somewhat sideways ending for Season 1, Episode 12: Night of the Wolf. Well, what do you expect from a Heathen writing a story based on a Nick-centered episode?

Tom walks the boundaries of his domain. Who could doubt he is lord of all he surveys?

The backstory of James and Alice Noble, who helped Heath in my story "Add on the Barkley."

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.

One of Jarrod's former lovers comes back into his life. Set after "Something in Between" and "Saving Dr. Merar."

So what did Heath see in Ward Whitcomb, anyway? A 'Now and Then' story, inspired by Season 1, Episode 23: The Fallen Hawk.

A little whimsical 'where did it come from' story inspired by Season 1 Episode 25 Into the Widow's Web.

Jarrod takes Nick to New Orleans for a vacation – in Jack Darby's home town, will they become involved in things they can't tell Mother about? Well, sure.

I thought about this after reading "One Bullet More" by WillowDryad and the Barkley boys spoke to me, too. So did Danny. This expands the ending to "Man From Nowhere."

Follows Something in Between. After Jarrod faints in the courtroom from overwork, Dr. Merar orders him to take several weeks off. Jarrod follows instructions, comes back rested and fit, but finds it's the doctor now who needs rescuing from a couple armed robbers.

What if he had had one bullet more? Rated T PLUS. Very dark.

Two years after Jarrod's wife's death, the family discovers he is still struggling when a woman in Stockton is murdered

"I'd do anything for you. Anything. You know that, don't you?" Heath Barkley puts his money where his mouth is and does as Mother wishes. A Now and Then Story based on Season 1, Episode 13: The Guilt of Matt Bentell.

"You're gonna have to shoot through me to get to him, Jarrod." Nick Barkley (Days of Wrath)

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.

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.

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.

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.
