Summary
Zoey is more than just a songwriter. All of her journals act as places for her thoughts to be laid out in written form, and some take the shape of stories. These are something she has kept very close to her heart, but with everything that has happened between the three of them since Rumi's demonic-heritage was revealed, she has decided to start sharing some of these stories. After all, what better night than Halloween to cuddle up on the couch and go through her life's work? From scary to funny to heartfelt to traumatic, Zoey shares all of this with the two most important people in her life.
Or
The author has way too many ideas for these three girls, so she took the cheap route and wrote an anthology series loosely connected by the reality that these stories are simply pieces in Zoey's many journals.

Bullet for my Bounty by JaegarDog

Summary
Jimmy kinda had to admit: he might be in a little over his head. Just a smidgen.
Rock dust showered down over him as another shot hit the rock he was sheltering behind, his hat keeping most of it from his eyes. He clutched his hat as he ducked forward. Raising his revolver, he shakily checked his rounds, finding three bullets still in the chambers. A hand groped around for his ammunition pouch on his belt, drawing a few rounds out and trying to load them with a shaking hand.
He found the right poster and held it up, glancing between the sketched face beneath the ‘Wanted: Dead or Alive’ and the man in front of him.
Yep, that was Tango Tek alright.

Jimmy wasn't looking for the guy with the big bounty, but he found him anyway.

Summary
Jayce grinned but all the comedy and affection was gone. His hands tightened around Viktor's waist. “But I found your mare, and I almost envied her lost rider, figurin’ him dead. And then I found you, and I realized what a fucking sign it was.”
Viktor caught his breath. There must have been some mistake, some mixed up sense of mysticism. A line of coincidences for a man at the end of his rope literally and figuratively did not necessarily mean it was an all encompassing sign. Viktor's heart broke that Jayce's hope, the thing that had pulled him from the edge, was nothing but a murderer chased to the ends of the earth.
“Jayce…” Viktor sighed, lifting a hand to caress Jayce's cheek. The hairs of his beard parted with a roughness that was unusual.
Jayce grabbed hold of Viktor's hand, squeezing with the strength of a dying man. “Don't try to break my heart to absolve yourself of some guilt over the mistakes you've made. ‘Cause I don't want you perfect. I want you as you are, as I know you.”

Summary
In 1890s America, the R. Coleman gang is on the run after the law finally catches up to them in the dusty town of Calico Bluffs. Barely escaping with their lives, they stumble into Willowford — a middle-of-nowhere town.
All Nick wants is to sell a stolen horse and drink himself halfway to death. Then he meets Ellis — a stable hand with a quick mouth.
Ellis sees through Nick like a window and doesn’t trust a word he says. Nick doesn’t trust anyone who still believes there’s good left in the world.
There’s no safe place left in the West — but maybe, if they’re lucky, they can carve one out for themselves.

Summary
Jayden Almasi has lived on the edge of death for as long as he can remember—gunslinger, outlaw, a name whispered in blood across the borderlands. He came to Raven’s Rest for a deal, not salvation. Then he saw her.
Camila (Naïdu) Cordero: the governor’s daughter, untouchable and gilded, a spark in a land drowning in dust. Touching her is treason. Loving her is war. But Jayden’s never feared war.
One glance turns into stolen words, stolen words into nights that burn hotter than gunpowder—and soon, wanting her isn’t enough. He’ll bleed for her. Kill for her. Burn kingdoms to ash if it means keeping her.
In a world ruled by greed and fire, their love will topple empires, ignite legends, and leave only one truth written in smoke: If they can’t have freedom, they’ll take eternity.Series
