Forever Texas follows a family working to establish a cattle ranch in the wilds of early Texas. The land is beautiful but dangerous, and the family has to contend with hostile neighbors, bandits, and the unforgiving land itself. The focus on homesteading and family gives these books a different feel from the Johnstone series built around lone gunfighters.
Two books appeared in 2022 and 2023. With titles like Forever Texas and Lone Star Legacy, the series leans hard into Texas pride and the idea of building something lasting on the frontier. It is a newer addition to the Johnstone catalog and a good fit for readers who enjoy frontier family sagas more than wandering-hero stories.
