Merry Christmas, everyone!

it was, seemingly, a simple trip. But nothing is simple in the wild west, especially if your name happens to be Jess Harper

The year is 1895 when Mike's daughter asks for a Henry rifle for Christmas as did Mike in 1878. Events in their young lives determine if their wishes come true. Slim, Jess and Mike narrate the two timelines, surprises, disappointments, courage and love bind this family of strays. Daisy twists her apron often. Mort Corey and Millie have cameos (and Original Characters).

A new take on how Jess and Slim meet and bond so quickly. How does Jess always seem to know when people are sneaking up on him? How does Slim always manage to calm him down? Here's a look at their backstory, and maybe some answers to these questions... Sentinel/Guide AU. Rated T for some violence, suspense, (very) mild swearing, and side character deaths.

This tale takes place in the early days before Mike and Daisy when a lean Christmas turns into something entirely different.

Jess is injured, badly injured, the worst he has ever been injured. It will change him forever, but with a group of men on his trail, he won't be the only one that suffers. PLEASE NOTE: chapter two has been rewritten/updated on 11/11/23

On a calm and cloudless day, A family travels home from town. It's a perfect spring day until they find a noose hanging from their barn roof. Every 15th day afterwards, is an escalating nightmare and no one knows why.

Uncanny happenings in far-off California reach out to touch the family of the Sherman ranch in an unexpected way.

A collection of short stories about saving the lives that make up Laramie. Each "chapter" is a COMPLETE story, with the saving theme in each. If you have something you would like to see, let me know and I'll do my best to put it into words. By the way, I intend to add on new chapters until I run out of ideas, which, you know, might be never!

A letter alters Slim's hatred of one particular Southerner.

While this series was intended to be about the saloon girls in Jess' life, someone asked that I include Daisy. I haven't turned her into a saloon girl and hope that I have done justice to the request. Daisy doesn't appear until Chapter 2, hope this doesn't test your patience! let me know what you think in the reviews!

COMPLETE. A vengeful man returns to Laramie. But it is not only one man that his wrath will fall on. Have fun or prepared to get scared...

Jess Harper's time in the Civil War was a defining experience, and many of the people he met there would have a lasting impact on his life. This is a crossover with other western shows as well. In progress.

Even wounded or ill, Jess insists "I'm fine." That phrase hides his condition, but it's also his solemn oath that he will triumph. Where did his 'never-give-in-to-the-pain' spirit come from? Ten short stories show what shaped Jess from the child to the gunfighter to Slim's pard. (Read a story or more; they make sense alone and together. Table of Contents in Chapter 1.) COMPLETE

A neck is fit for a noose. Make that two necks. But only one man will hang, and it isn't the right one.

In Badge of Glory, Jess meets up with his old friend, Helen. The affection between them is clear, but what was their actual history? Thanks for sticking with me on this! Constructive criticism encouraged!

Chapter 6 has just been added, and Jess and Caroline are finally home. This is a continuation of the Missing Scenes for Return to Rock Springs. You will need to read Return to Rock Springs and the first three missing scenes first before this segment.I still hope to continue this saga at some time in the future.

You see, Mr. DeWalt's a fine man. It only stands to reason that a man like that, a man with money and property, lots of high-up friends in town, and a fair-dealin' reputation, well, he'd naturally have a wife like Mrs. DeWalt. THIS STORY IS COMPLETE.

In the Fortune Hunter, Opal provides important information for Slim. But what happens after?

In S2E29, Trigger Point, Lottie is about to give up, not just on crossing the desert but life itself. Jess encourages her, telling her that he cared, cared a lot. Lottie finds her strength and finishes their journey. Then changes her ticket to settle in Laramie. We never see her again, but this is what I imagine might have happened. Many thanks to the original writers.

Jess was friends with several saloon girls for one episode. I often wonder what their stories are

In a run for their lives, Slim is stopped, while Jess and Andy keep going. Or maybe they will all have the same fate...

Peace is defined as "freedom from disturbance; tranquility." After years of searching, Jess has finally found it *side note: I grabbed the first sentence for this fic from an episode of Rawhide (S1.EP7 Incident at Barker Springs) and it made me think of Jess so here we are

How far would you go to save someone? Jess and Slim discover that it takes 128 days.

A certain Mrs de Walt, with a very definite plan in mind, arrives by stage at the Sherman Relay Station. After that, events take an unexpected turn ... for everyone.
