Long before Tombstone and the gunfight at the O.K. Corral, frontier vagabond Doc Holliday rode into the tumultuous Texas town of Fort Griffin, looking for a mysterious lady gambler, not trouble. Only after he finds both does he escape into legend. Known throughout the rough-and-tumble towns of west Texas for her beauty, female gambler Lottie Deno possesses uncanny luck at the gaming tables. Trouble, though, comes in several shapes, none more volatile nor more available than "Big Nose" Kate Elder, a soiled dove with a heart of bold! As Doc attempts to win Lottie's money and her heart, both he and she become pawns in a duel of saloon rivals to control Fort Griffin's gambling underworld. In this contest between gambling king and queen, Kate elder becomes the unpredictable joker, as infatuated with Doc as he is with Lottie. A model of feminine propriety except for her gambling, Lottie Deno cannot escape a terrible secret from her past. Kate cannot escape her marital ambitions. Only with the help of one of them can Doc Holliday, a man torn between love and lust, escape a lynch mob and an early grave in wicked Fort Griffin. Lottie's Luck is a revised and updated version of The Lady and Doc Holliday, originally published in 1989.
