Gauntlet Run

Gauntlet Run by Joan Elliott Pickart, published by Silhouette Books in 1987, is a novel that explores the complexities of family legacy and personal desire. After the death of her wealthy father, Hollis returns to Texas, where his will stipulates that she must stay at Gauntlet Run for six months. This arrangement places her in close proximity to Cutter McKenzie, the ranch’s foreman, whose strong presence complicates her grief and sense of obligation.
In this narrative, readers will find a blend of tension and attraction as Hollis navigates her father’s controlling influence from beyond the grave. The story delves into themes of power dynamics and emotional conflict, particularly as Hollis grapples with Cutter’s intentions and the external pressures threatening her stay at the ranch. With 218 pages, this edition presents a detailed exploration of the characters’ interactions and the challenges they face in a setting that is as much a character as the individuals themselves.
Official synopsis Publisher
The death of Hollis’s fabulously wealthy father brought her home to Texas and his will demanded that she remain at Gauntlet Run for six months . . . with the infuriating and irresistibly appealing Cutter McKenzie. From the grave, bullheaded Buck Champion was still trying to control Hollis – this time by forcing her to play house with the ranch’s strong, steely foreman.
In Cutter’s ice-blue eyes, Hollis registered both danger and desire. Danger because someone was trying to force Hollis from the ranch . . . and Cutter made no bones that he wanted Gauntlet Run for himself. Desire because the way he looked at her left no doubt that he wanted Hollis, as well . . .
