Lilli Stone by SEViolet

Will traveling across country alone with him ruin her reputation beyond repair, or worse? There's only one way to find out. 'Shaped lean an' tough, the stranger reminded me of a wolf, an' the well-worn gun belt with a smooth polished black ivory handle did not escape my notice neither. It was tied down, an' I felt my heart quicken. Judd had tol' me a'plenty about men who carried guns that'a way, an' I had no likin' for it. That kind was followed by nothin' but misery an' killin'. ' WARNING: There's A LOT of (') in the first few chapters of this book! A LOT. Headin', Startin' etc... There's ALSO horrible grammer. It's supposed to be there! First few chapters, then it gets better. (you'll understand when you read them) ALSO...NO GRAPHIC CONTENT of any kind.
