Attacked by stage coach robbers, Bethany Lancaster finds herself in the tiny town of Alsburgh, Montana. Fleeing from her brother and his tyrannical ways after her father's death, it is not where she wants to be. Her brush with death is thwarted by the town's marshal, who introduces himself by dousing her with water. Marshal Hunter Bancroft is focused on his work and keeping his town safe. He is not interested in courting women, and has no time for them anyway. Until the very frustrating Miss Bethany Lancaster comes along. She both intrigues and repels him, but he can't help but want to be near her. Can these two put their first impressions aside? And will Bethany break through the barrier the Marshal has built around himself over many years? Author's Promise: This is a heartwarming historical Christmas novella with a happily ever after ending and no cliffhangers. It is a clean and wholesome story with nothing more than hugs, kisses, and holding hands.
Author
Being a writer can be... interesting. Walking down the street and watching people go about their day-to-day life, but thinking strange, even dangerous things. I still clearly remember the day I stood at the traffic lights in downtown Melbourne. There she was, sitting in her car, waiting for the lights to change green. Tapping her fingers impatiently. Something inside my head went off. Kaboom! An idea formed, and became the beginning of a novel. Instead of sitting patiently at the lights, she was nervous, extremely anxious as she was being pursued by killers. The next thing she knew, an angry, crazy man was slamming her windscreen with a sledgehammer and she was running for her life. Yes, the life of a writer is quite unique.
