Renegade’s Lady

GENRE: Historical Romance
(Western)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
Hi!
I had soooo much fun researching Renegade’s Lady. The heroine is a dime novel
writer who goes West to research her new book. If you’re not familiar with dime
novels, they were the original paperback books from the 1800s. I even managed
to find a few at antique stores. One I bought is titled The Golden Belt, and it
was published by Beadle and Company in 1866. What a treasure! I can’t believe
it’s held up this long. So I hope you enjoy Sheri and Brand, the half-breed
scout, in Renegade’s Lady!
Looking For a Hero
Sheridan St. John was
a successful writer who had no need for a man in her life…as long as she had
one between the pages of her dime novels. But when her editor told her sales
were off, Sheri set out for the Wild West in search of the perfect hero for her
new book.
Brand, The Half-Breed
Scout
The man Sheri found
fulfilled her every requirement for a fantasy lover—half Apache, a tall, dark,
and dangerous male—but he was completely wrong for a real-life mate. On the run
from the law, Brand guarded his heart as the attraction between them destroyed
her reservations, leaving Sheri with one burning need—to become the renegade’s
lady.

EXCERPT:
Sheri sat watching Brand as he stood near the cave entrance.
He was a tall, lean, broad-shouldered silhouette in the soft moonlight, and she
shivered as she remembered the power of his touch. Strange feelings besieged
her. For that one breathless moment in time when his lips had been on hers, she
had been in ecstasy, and now… He had abandoned her without so much as a
backward glance, leaving her unsure, confused…and a little angry.
“Do you want me to help you keep watch?” she finally asked,
knowing the raiding party could be near.
“No. Stay there, where you’ll be safe,” Brand told her,
knowing the last thing he wanted was to have her near him.
Brand stared out into the night, forcing himself to
concentrate on keeping watch. He had to ignore the woman behind him. He knew
now that he should never have kissed her. He wished there was some way to get
her back to the fort tonight. The sooner he was away from her, the better.
Alone…He liked being alone. Then he had no one to worry
about except himself.
He glanced back at her, and emotions he had long denied tore
at him. They were under attack by renegades, and she was depending on him to
keep her safe. He would not fail. He had to keep watch. He could allow himself
no lapse. He’s made two mistakes that day already—missing the renegades’ tracks
and kissing Sherri. He wasn’t about to make another.
