If you liked the Magnificent Seven, you'll love the Rock Creek Six! Six elite Confederate soldiers band together after the War Between the States, hiring out their guns to protect lawless towns. Violence is all they know, until they make their way to Rock Creek, Texas. Rico has always been called "the Kid" by the other members of the Rock Creek Six. Though he can't hit much with a gun, he is deadly with a knife-and with women. But like all the others, Rico has secrets that come back to haunt him.
Lily Fortier arrives in Rock Creek hiding a secret identity. After winning the local saloon in a poker game, she decides to create for herself the life she's always dreamed of having. What she doesn't need is an aimless bad boy pretending to be a man, even if he is as decorative as Rico.
However, Rico proves himself to be much more than a handsome knife for hire. As they work together and make a home for both themselves and the two orphaned children who love them, the two begin to wonder if they might just be made for each other.
When a Pinkerton agent arrives in Rock Creek and drags Lily back to New Orleans to stand trial for murder will Rico be able to save her?
