Rated: X

Synopsis:  If you are looking for a traditional Bonanza story line with a happy ending this isn't it!   Like life it has no ending, like life it has no plot, like life it has twists and turns that the characters aren't expecting and have to deal with.  It has 'real' situations and we hope 'real' characterisations.  A different sequel to the series, begun at the point where Adam was written out, and linked to both my stories and Pat Dumas's.  You will enjoy it more if you have read Impossible Dream and Pat's stories about Patrick since this follows The Patriot Game.  Written in an entirely different way, where each of us took characters and responded line for line as though it was a real situation with real conversations.  The plot wasn't planned, like real life it just developed from incidents that we chose as individuals to introduce.  Our only agreed plot line was that the ranch needed a book keeper.  Also like real life it has situations which some may find disturbing or not what they would expect from the Cartwrights. 

                Rated X

                Synopsis:  Follow on from The New Hand, this chronicles the early years of Adam’s marriage and is written in the same style as New Hand, it has no plot and no happy ending, it as written as it happens, like life. 

                Rated X
