LUSTY, ROUGH, AND RANDY... AS BIG AND BOLD AS THE MOUNTAINS THAT BRED HIM... HE'S MOUNTAIN JACK PIKE A rock-hard, brawling bear of a man, Jack Pike is the best bang-up beaver trapper in the Rockies-one of the last in a rapidly vanishing breed of hard-loving, upstanding mountain men When Kit Carson invites Jack Pike on a hunting trip south of the Arkansas River, the hot-blooded trapper jumps on the opportunity like a bull on a heifer. But things get a mite sticky down around Comanche territory, what with an abandoned Indian maiden joining up with the party, bending over backwards to satisfy her randy rescuers-Pike in particular. And Jack no sooner has his hands full with the buxom red-skinned beauty when even more trouble pops up-from a hooting, hollering band of murdering Comanche warriors hungry for the white men's scalps, and from a slobbering, overgrown mountain wolf hungry for everything else But it's tough keeping a hard man down-and Jack Pike's ready to rise to the occasion to come out with all his vital parts intact THE MOUNTAIN LIFE BREEDS HARD MEN... AND THERE'S NO MAN HARDER THAN... MOUNTAIN JACK PIKE
