His eyes were relentless as they peered into my mine. His cerulean irises deepening their intensity until they made my eyes feel as though they burned like embers. My breathing grew labored, and though the moment passed quickly, I prayed to God to let it end for the passion of his desire surged from every nerve of my body and it was truly more than I could bear. The look of stark devotion that obliged his face made him seem all the more beautiful to me, killing me with the adoration I held for him. “That man,” That man he’d said, refusing to speak John Tunstall’s name in this instant. “The one you’re set to marry—I don’t want him to have you.” I took in these words and displayed a look of alarm at his desperation. His face grew heated and his brow furrowed severely. His hands closed around my arms and held to them tightly. “I won’t let him have you—he won’t know you before I do. I’ll have you first!” Bandita Bonita: Romancing Billy the Kid, Book I BOOK II Slated for 2015 nicolemdixonauthor When pretty, outspoken, and spirited sixteen year old Lucy Howard, heiress to one of the richest, finest families from New York, is sent to Lincoln County, NM, to marry her pre-contracted fiancé John Tunstall, Lucy is devastated, feeling as though a captive of her wealthy life, insincerely acting out her duties to the family that has made her feel a prisoner.
