McIntyre thought she looked, well, refreshed, or at least more relaxed. That was good, considering what was coming. Maybe she wouldn’t reach for a gun when she found out the details o

Attempting to take his mind off their feminine curves, he tried to guess what they might see in this empty room. Could they imagine dining room tables covered with red-check table cloths, politely chatting customers, the sound

Copyright 2012 Heather Blanton Rebecca cupped her hands around her eyes and peered deeper into the store. “I didn’t expect this to happen so fast,” she said, sounding uncertain. “One moment we’re talking about what to do for a living and the next, we own a hotel.” “One that looks to need a complete renovation.” Naomi snapped her fingers. “Nothing to it.” “What do you think we ought to do first?” Rebecca asked, ignoring the

A Lady in Defiance
Book One By Heather Frey Blanton
Copyright 2012 Heather Blanton As the sisters rode the rest of the way down the street, they didn’t speak of Grady O’Banion, but Naomi looked back several times. The crowd filled in around him pretty quickly and she wasn’t able to catch sight of him.

Chapter 3 — Part 4: Meet Hannah. She Could be Your Daughter
A Lady in Defiance Book One By Heather Frey Blanton Copyright 2012 Heather Blanton Hannah tried for one last glance up at the window where she had seen the girls but as they pulled away, the wagon’s bonnet blocked it. She settled back down in her seat, scratching at her waist, and pondered Defiance. The town terrified her. Even so, she could see past the wanton lust, the drunkenness, the false bravado exhibited so perfectly in their “welcoming committee.” Against her better j

Chapter 3 — Part 3: McIntyre Shows His True Colors
A Lady in Defiance Book One By Heather Frey Blanton Copyright 2012 Heather Blanton Art by Angirias Lighting a cigar, McIntyre stood far enough back from the saloon’s windows to study the girls without being seen. He was pleased to discover that the other two sisters were just as handsome as Naomi. However, he considered their planned future a waste of good flesh. Two golden-haired beauties and a dark one would draw in the miners; they always liked fresh meat. [SO I’LL FESS UP

Chapter 3 — Could Naomi Use Anger Management Classes?
A Lady in Defiance Book One By Heather Frey Blanton Copyright 2012 Heather Blanton The San Juan Mountain Range! The end of their conversation was interrupted by a commotion outside. Naomi heard Hannah squeal in fright and both she and Mr. McIntyre bolted for the door. Together, they exploded through the bat wings to find three, mud-encrusted miners playing keep-away with Hannah’s bonnet. She and Rebecca sat, clinging to each other, in the wagon and shrilly demanding the retur

McIntyre and Naomi Meet. Why Do the Sparks Fly? Because There is No Other Way These Two Could Play i
Book One By Heather Frey Blanton Copyright 2012 Heather Blanton Inside the Iron Horse Saloon, McIntyre drummed his fingers on his desk. [THERE IS A BIKER BAR OUT ON THE HIGHWAY NAMED THIS; I PASS IT EVERYDAY ON THE WAY TO WORK.] The letter did not bring him the news he wanted and he despised not getting what he wanted. He read that one particular line again: “while Defiance is in an excellent location to provide a hub for spur lines up from Animas Forks and Pinkerton Springs
