On the run from her ex-lover... Jilted by a no-show husband... And now mistaken for a whore in the Diamond Back Saloon... Abigail Thornton doesn't think things can get any worse. That is until a single slap to a man's face starts a barroom brawl that lands her in the last place she expected to be. Town Marshal Morgan Avery wants nothing more than to wash away the trail-dust and sleep for a week, preferably with a soft, willing woman by his side. Instead, he gets Abigail Thornton - all one hundred pounds of her thrust at him seconds before a fist connects with his face. Breaking up the fight takes more effort than he wants to admit and when the last man falls he finds Abigail still standing and not looking the least bit contrite. Throwing her into the town jail for the night would salve his wounded pride and then he will let her go. Or that was the plan. When morning comes he finds himself oddly reluctant to do so. Miss Thornton is hiding something and he aims to find out what, even if he has to bed her to do so. But will one night in her bed be enough? *WARNING: This story contains smokin' hot love scenes. It is 'not' a sweet romance.*

He thinks she's a traitor to her queen. She thinks he's just a gardener. Despised by the cousin with whom she's forced to live, the lonely but determined Alys craves escape. The most dangerous thing she could do is fall in love. Especially when the man who tempts her is Kit Ludlow, an exiled nobleman in disguise. Becoming involved in his secret mission proves more perilous than Alys could possibly have imagined. Kit has been banished from Queen Elizabeth's court, and the last thing he wants is to entangle Alys in his web of treachery and deception.

After helping Kit foil a plot against the queen, Alys' life is at risk from her cousin's nefarious schemes. Estranged from Kit, she's forced to make a desperate decision. Should she protect her family, or follow the demands of her heart? N.B. This is just a sample, the first chapter from the book.
