The Lone Star Ranger: A Romance of the Border by Zane Grey

Buck Duane, the son of a famous gunslinger, falls prey to the old problem: called by a cowboy who wants to cause trouble, Duane kills him and then has to go to the lawless town near the Neuces River to escape arrest and perhaps, hanged. His brief encounter with a deadly shooting has ignited a deep urge to repeat the adrenaline rush, but it's tempered by the ghosts that haunt his sleep. He only dares to unleash his inner demon when he is taking down an outlaw who is particularly known for his brutality. He develops a reputation for killing the most notorious outlaws in Texas, which piques unexpected interest: a Texas Rangers captain offers him an excuse and a ranger badge if he infiltrates the dark figure gang known as "Cheseldine" which wields vast power in West Texas, and will allow the Rangers to break the gang's grip on the towns in the region. Duane accepts, never guessing in his wildest nightmares that he would smell this Cheseldine, her hiding places, her lieutenants ... and he would fall in love with her daughter!
