Defiant
by Bobbi Smith
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Historical Romance
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
Clint Williams
Born February 16, 1852
Died March 23, 1877
Those were the words that marked his grave, and Clint knew that although he stood reading his own epitaph, they were true. Ever since the attack that had killed his entire family, he’d been dead inside. Only one thing kept him going—the burning need to bring in the outlaws who’d done it.
The Last Chance Saloon
Posing undercover to infiltrate the gang, Clint could let no one know his true identity or the fact that he’d once been a Texas Ranger. Not even the pretty daughter of a preacher man who burst into the saloon calling upon the gamblers to repent. As far as she knew, he was a gunslinger with a bad reputation who had no right to touch a good woman. But sometimes a man’s got to break all the rules, ignore common send to follow his heart and get downright… Defiant.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
EXCERPT ONE:
Clint was tense as he stood ready to shoot. In an instant, he drew his gun and fired. He hit the target dead on. His long hours of practice these past two weeks had paid off.
Clint turned to face Captain Meyers. He’d arranged to meet with the Ranger captain at the ruins of his family’s ranch so he could tell him what he planned to do.
“You were a fast draw before, but I think you’re even quicker now.”
“Good, I need to be.”
“What’s your plan?”
Clint was grim as he explained. “Except for a few people here in the area, everyone believes I was killed during the attack on the ranch. I want it to stay that way. Clint Williams is dead. From now on I’m Kane McCullough.”
“You want a new identity?” Meyers was surprised.
“Yes, and this is where I need your help—because Kane McCullough is a gunfighter, and he needs a reputation. I want you to get the word out.”
Captain Meyers realized Clint was right. No one would suspect who he really was, since everyone believed he was dead. As a deadly gunman he could move in the same circles as the killers and bring them down.
“I can do that.”
“Thanks. Have you heard of any new leads?”
“They’ve been lying low, but I just got word they were holding up in Black Canyon.”
“I’m riding to Black Canyon.” Clint’s mood was black.
“Good luck.”
The two men shook hands.
