Blurb:
Anna Devlin, a recently jilted bounty hunter is a modern woman
from the twenty-first century. She is anxious for the hearing that will
reinstate her law enforcement career, but an encounter with a strange Native
American woman sends Anna back in time to the year 1870.
Federal Marshal Wesley Shannon of Denton, Kansas, has no idea
where this woman with the strange clothing and way of speaking came from. Since
he fights his own inner demons, the last thing he needs is an attraction to a
woman who has given him no clear idea who she is.
But when danger arrives in the form of stagecoach hold ups where
drivers and passengers are being killed, Anna torments Wes with plans to help
him bring in the outlaws.
Will Wes be able to keep Anna out of harm’s way, or will his
attraction to her distract him enough that they are both in danger?
Excerpt:
She hurried down the boardwalk, head
lowered, deep in thought, when she ran smack into a wall of muscle.
“Whoa.” Wes captured both of her
arms as she slammed into his warm chest. “Where you going in such a hurry?” The
moonlight caught his expression as he frowned. “And what are you doing out on
the streets this late at night?”
Anna bristled. “Is there a law
against it, marshal?”
He grinned.
Why did she always feel like a
little girl when she locked horns with this man?
“No, ma’am. I’m just trying to
protect the people of the town. Especially from women who can clobber a fella
without raisin’ dust.”
“Are you making fun of me?”
He held both hands up in surrender,
his lips twitching. “Not me.” He cupped her elbow. “Allow me to escort you to
the hotel, Miss Devlin.”
She slanted him a glance. “My, how
chivalrous.”
Slowly, he slid her arm into the
crook of his elbow and rested his hand on hers. “Seriously, Anna, you shouldn’t
be running around town after dark. Life can be dangerous. You never know . . .”
Something in his voice made her look
sharply at him. The lines bracketing his mouth had tightened, and she could
feel the tension in his arm. What secret memories did this man harbor? Or was
this merely the male protectiveness of a lawman in the eighteen seventies?

I found this when I checked out Goddess Fish for my own book tour--started reading the excerpt and was lost! This looks terrific - it goes on my to-read list! Good luck, Callie!
