A Convenient Escape
by Sara R. Turnquist
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Historical Romance (Sweet)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
She has nowhere to go. He has nothing to lose.
Lily
McAllen has known nothing but hardship and rejection. Her brother, the only
person she can lean on, takes a job at the Miller ranch. Now with no ally, she
is alone, confined, and vulnerable. She becomes desperate to get away…by any
means necessary.
Despite
his best intentions, Daniel Hayworth is drawn into a fatal mishap. He feels
responsible. And is prepared to do whatever it takes to ensure Lily is cared
for…even if that means proposing marriage.
Complicating
matters, Geronimo and his raiding band terrorize the surrounding areas.
Troubles mount and tensions challenge the growing attraction between Dan and
Lily.
Will they make it to the church? Or find themselves victims of
lies, disillusionment, or the ire of an Apache rebel?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
EXCERPT TWO:
As
he neared Lily, he looked up at her. Her features were difficult to read—stoic,
flat. Was she angry? Hurt?
Putting
off engaging her for a handful of seconds longer, Dan gripped the horse’s bit
and urged the mare closer to the cabin. Once at the post, he reached for the
reins to tie the mare off. But the leather straps wouldn’t come.
He
looked up.
Lily
had them in a firm grip.
Staring
at her, he tugged again.
She
let them loose.
He
lost his balance and nearly fell, catching himself at the last moment.
Of
all the…
Glancing
toward Uncle Owen, he noticed that the man had disappeared, leaving the door
open. Probably the older rancher’s hip. It bothered him from time to time. At
least he hadn’t witnessed Dan’s embarrassing near-trip.
Dan
looked back to Lily. She was halfway off the horse. Only…
She
wasn’t making any more progress. Her body had slid off to the side of the
horse, and one foot sought the ground, but it seemed as if her other foot, or
perhaps something about her boot, had gotten caught in the stirrup. She clung
to the pommel and she was grunting.
Serves
her right.
What
a terrible thing to think toward a lady in distress. Dan wished he felt worse.
Should he rush to her aid? Or wait for her to ask?
Everything
in him wanted to assist, but he held back. Maybe his efforts wouldn’t be
well-received.
So,
he waited. And watched.
She
pulled herself up slightly. Then movement about the stirrup under her skirt
commenced. And intensified. At last, she sagged against the animal as she cried
out.
“Need
some help?” Dan kept his voice steady, hoping his smile didn’t sneak into his
tone and betray him.

AUTHOR BIO:
Sara is a
coffee lovin', word slinging, Historical Romance author whose super power is
converting caffeine into novels. She loves those odd little tidbits of history
that are stranger than fiction. That's what inspires her. Well, that and a good
love story.
But
of all the love stories she knows, hers is her favorite. She lives happily with
her own Prince Charming and their gaggle of minions. Three to be exact. They
sure know how to distract a writer! But, alas, the stories must be written,
even if it must happen in the wee hours of the morning.
Sara
is an avid reader and enjoys reading and writing clean Historical Romance when
she’s not traveling. Her books range from the Czech lands to the American wild
west and from ancient Egypt to the early 1900s. Some of her titles include The
Lady Bornekova, Hope in Cripple Creek, The General’s Wife, Trail
of Fears, and the Convenient Risk Series.
