The Gunfighter's Pursuit, Ride Hard Series, Book Two This book can be read as a stand alone. Emma Fairfax has a secret. She is not the prim and proper new schoolteacher this small Arizona town had been expecting from the East. Emma chased that poor woman away when she robbed her stagecoach and shot a man in cold blood. It wasn't Emma's fault. He would have shot her first. Now she was in a bind. No money. No place to go. A wanted criminal. Murderess! Her only way out was to pretend to be Miss Glendolene Rimmel, respectable schoolteacher. And it was going remarkably well... until he rode into town. Jackson Horn noticed two things straight away about the town's pretty little schoolmarm. The sweet sashay of her hips when she walked... and that she was hiding something. As a Confederate soldier turned gunfighter after the war, he earned his money tracking down men for their bounties and hiring out his gun to the highest bidder. So he was good at spotting liars and thieves. He didn't give a damn about the coin, what he really wanted was information on the man who framed him for murder. Each bounty, each kill brought him closer to his revenge. The schoolteacher's secret started out as a mild curiosity. A way to get closer to the straight-laced beauty's charms. Then she tried to kill him... twice. Now Horn is determined to learn her secret. Determined to rein in her stubborn spirit and get her to accept his discipline and protection. He might even be falling in love with the feisty beauty... if he can get her to stop trying to kill him long enough!
